the only way more spark will help is just that...more spark. and i'm not talking a hotter spark. i'm talking longer travel. the spark ignites more gas through it's travel increasing burn times, reducing time it takes for complete combustion...increasing throttle response and increasing mileage due to the fact that less fuel exits the tail pipe.

but...until ford and chevy actually come out with the iridium tipped pistons and a single sided spark plug with no electrode on it...we're stuck with the ages old technology of a .035 thousandths gap.
