i have been using the ngk r5724-10 stock # is 7993. that is 4 steps colder, up to a 400 shot, but u can try those then go up a step r5724-8's.
its better to be conservative until you reach the correct heat range.

i usualy gap them at .020

I take it that you have the trick flow heads? i guess 3 steps colder would be a starting point since its higher compression and a shot. Iv had better luck with the Autolight plugs then the NGK's with it idling and not fouling. Any idea of a part number?

I looked up the part numbers you gave me and have noticed that the plugs arnt a resistor plug. Do we need a resistor plug to keep electronics from being damaged.
