Excellent point.  Although non-resistor Champion N-8 and N-14Y are still 
available for the 50's through 70's 4-cylinder Land Rover engines.  Lawn mower 
spark plugs are also generally shorter as well.  But how do you connect the coax 
center conductor to the electrode?  And without disturbing the ground 
electrode for the spark gap?
