AC Delco spark plugs

[Jim Spahr]

Trivia question?- What does the AC in AC Delco stand for? Hint- it is a guy's initials, a guy you have heard of.

I think you're right, but I want to say Arnold Champion. I'm not going to cheat and try to look it up, though.

Not Arnold or Author, but Albert Champion. He did start Champion spark plugs, no pun intended. I saw this on Speed TV or Spike Power Block.
