I would like to see some actual test results on this modification. Seems hard to believe all of the common heads (including OEM) would keep the plug located over the edge of the ex valve if there is an advantage to moving it. The normal plug location puts a lot of restrictions on plug selection, you would think it would be moved if there was even the slightest advantage, or at least no loss in performance. Test data would sure be interesting.
