Question Any NA stock cube people running TR-6 NGK's?

I was planning a nitrous kit at one point, but changed the plan.

Are the TR-6's going to be too cold for a small cammed Naturally Aspirated 346?

I was gonna say it will be too cold, but since you have a cam, i dunno. How small is the cam?

I run the same plugs, my cam is a 228/232

I dunno that is not too much bigger than stock. You might want to run NGK TR55s then... I am not 100% positive though

Doubt it will matter, tr55's would probably be the best. tr-6's will prly work just fine.

That's what I run now...the TR55's.
Just figured I'd ask about the spare set I have.

My baby cam is all lift, 226/226 .595"/.595" 112lsa (Max HP @ 6500, Max TQ @ 5600), shifting at 6700-6800 for best ET/MPH

I never see KR on any datalogs though.

If you're still at stock compression there's no real reason to run a colder plug. Now if you were in the 11:1 range, then I might say TR6.

I'm currently running TR6's in my extensively modified 383....waiting on the Nitrous and thus far no issues with them.
