[AT] Compression test on 7/8 inch plugs

Autolite 3076 is the plug I'm using right now in the 1935 B.  I would like to find something much hotter. The 3076 in the plug number and the 6 is the way Autolite designates heat range of the plug so it is already on the high side.  But since I'm going to have a 7/8" to 14MM adapter there may be a 14 mm plug that is hotter.  I've not found a reference that compares heat ranges between manufacturers

There were 1/2" pipe thread spark plugs (14 threads per inch), but what Dean has is 7/8"-18 straight machine threads, like an Autolite 3076 plug has.
