im going to have to agree. Something's not right. (I've seen 4 toasted ecotec motors... and 3 out of 4 of them, the plugs looked like that)
what is the length of that spark plug compared to the stock?

Those are the srt4 plugs he said and from what I've heard there the exact same length or a hair shorter I can't remember.
I knew they were srt plugs, just didnt know the length. If they are a hair shorter then they should be fine. A hair longer and they could cause some trouble.

there a lil longer..stock plugs are in and runs fine...
same @!#$ happened last sunday..but not as bad just regapped the plug and was on my way..
