#45's (Autolite) are 18mm plugs, what cylinder heads are you using(casting # above center exhaust ports)? Autolite #3924's are a good # for the smaller 14mm plugs.
 
 Some 429-460 cylinder head casting number's using 18mm plugs
C8SE
C8VE
C9VE
DOVE-C

DOOE-R
D2OB-AB& D3AE-FA(POLICE INTERCEPTOR ENGINES)
D2VE
D3VE-A2A
 
Hope this helps.
 
BTW, check plug threads carefully, somebody may have installed "adapters" to the 18mm heads to allow for more plug choices in the 14mm size.
 
Just a thought.
 
If you do find that the 18mm plugs fit, try an NGK WR5, I have been real happy with these since switching from Autolite 45's.

Yeah, It's a Hybrid...It burns gas and tires.

No matter how good she looks, somebody, somewhere, is tired of her sh*t.

Beauty is skin deep, ugliness goes clear to the bone.
