Dean,
I suspect you are aware that there was an Autolite 3077. I was interested a year or two ago, but most places I looked were out of stock.

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
