I don't think it matters a whole lot as long as the cap makes good contact with the coil wire core. I'm using a small cap from a weedeater on my big bore R and it works fine. Had to find something smaller for the BB cylinder as the head doesn't angle the sparkplug away from the frame brace leaving little clearance to get a taller, more rigid cap on it.

I found using a br8ecm plug helped alot with clearance issues, its much shorter than the standard br8es/eg/ev.

I was going to go the shorty plug route, on your recommendation if I recall...

But I had this dead weedeater and said what the heck could it hurt to try..and what do ya know..it works and hasn't given me even a hint of trouble. :)
