Default Spark plug recommendation
I'm getting ready to fire up my new motor and I'm looking for some advice on spark plugs. The motor is a 347 pushing 11.3, 11.4:1 compression NA. I was wondering if I should just stick with the NGK TR-55's that I used before, or should I go with a cooler plug?

Every motor is different but I would biy some tr6 and tr55s and see what the motor likes. The tr6 should help prevent KR.

In the mans defense NGK does have weird *** part numbers that never seem to coincide properly.
