As part of my most recent round of upgrades, I replaced the DPR7EA-9 plugs with DRP8EA-9 plugs to help prevent detonation with the rather extreme compression my motor has, among some other measures taken. I am not great at reading plugs, but, here are the carefully removed plugs which were in the motor for about 2,000 miles on the 265 build after going to Carpenter and 2,500 miles before the high comp pistons. For those who still have this skill (dark art), what do these tell you?
The area between the ceramic and steel threaded side are free of debris. None of the plugs were wet when removed at all.
I did run some MMT based octane booster through the motor, which, will account for the slightly reddish brown covering the ceramic and on the negative electrode.
