what spark plugs should be used on a 1.4 bottom end an a 1.3 head
( i dont think the head has ever been skimmed but not 100% sure as i bought it second hand

what is the diffeence between the 1.3 an 1.4 spark plugs ?

Plugs for a 1.4 should be fine, saying that from what I can remember nova's use the same plug from 1.2 through to 1.6.

just found 1 of my old 1.4 plugs compared it to the plugs that came in the 1.3 when i got it. an the thread on the 1.4 plug is nearly twice as long as the 1.3 ?

according to all the lists for spark plugs, small block novas have the same plugs throughout the range (and even take the same "spuer 4" as aston martins lol)

the plugs in my 1.4 were vaux (GM) 807
the plugs in my 1.3 head are champion RL82YCC (these are the ones that have the thread half as long as gm plugs) are these incorrect then?will any damage occur if i use them
