    Guys, I watched Bud & Ross Granley perform an incredible aerobatic routine at the Arlington Fly-In this last weekend. Bud flys a Yak 55 & Ross a Yak 18T with M14P engines. I took a close look & saw that they both had auto spark plug conversions with silicon plug wires. Seem that they are very confident with that conversion!!
