Default Ngk Tr-55
Does anyone here know where to go the NGK for the LS1 for a decent price? I went down to a shop in town and they had them but wanted 14 dollars for one!!!!! so maybe they are cheeper online. on ls1.com I saw a complete set of spark plugs and msd wires, but ls1 is down. So where else to get them from?

Same here, got my tr-55's at Advance. They were $14 for all 8. I hope no one is buying them for $14 for 1. Thats a major rip off... If so I hope their kissing them after they f*&k them...

TR6 has a colder heat range than the TR55. That will not benefit you at all since you are stock. Go with the TR55's and gap em at .045-.050 and you're set. No need for new wires unles you actually have a reason to get rid of the stockers.

stock plugs are gapped at .060. I run the NGK TR55's and gapped them at .055. Being stock you should gap them anywhere from .050 - .060.

6's are better for boosted applications.
Stick with the 55's
