Default plugs?

i have an ls2 in the car (everything is listed in the carb build sticky) and i put tr6's in it out of fear of detonation on pump ****. it seems to stink worse at idle now though... should i be using 55's?

What does the afr look like? I am thinking of going back to tr6 from the br7ef since I took the nitrous off, I would not think you would make that big a difference on burn at idle. But I never had it catch my attention.

mid to high 14's at idle but its got alot of cam in it...it actually seems to load up at idle if stopped at a light long enough, which it never seemed to do with the stock platnium plugs in it.

Very possible, might want to just go with what works, I ran tr5s with no issues actually.
