I had an issue with the stock plugs even though magnuson gives you no instruction to change them. I put tr6 plugs in at about .035 and its been all good for 30k miles.

I'm more worried at this point about the valve springs that I got screwed out of. Cms said they will put some prc's in I think they said good for .650.

If my magnavolt ever goes out do I have to just replace the box unit? Cause I have a spare

so i dont feel like reading everyones post from top to bottom so im just gunna throw in my two cents. ive got my maggie with a cam, long tubes and pulley'd down and i ran tr's, i just recently did another cam swap from a custom ground blower baby stick to a big *** blower daddy stick and i went to tr7's. as for pricing what it sounds like you are runnin i would just go with the ngk tr6's they are 1.99 a piece and i trust them more then a autolite. if money is no problem get the iridium ones but they are like 7or 8.99 a piece retarded imo. with the mp112 and to cooling system it has i recommend running a water only with water wetter. it works really well here in tx for me seing my iat temps in the 100-120 range depending on what heat its been in. 120 when it was over 100 outside.

good luck with the install and shoot us some numbers when you get it all patched up!!
