Re: NGK spark plug question Good question, however, nobody I know thats interested in performance runs a platinum plug. Get TR55's if performance is what you want. Plug changes are easy on the vette so there's no real reason to run platinum plugs.

Re: NGK spark plug question Are they really that easy? You get any more power? This is our first LS1/Vette so I am open to all suggestions on power upgrades and anything that will help this car. Thanks.

Re: NGK spark plug question You're not really gonna gain any (at least any noticeable) power with a set of NGK TR55s, but I am still gonna switch out my stock plugs soon. I had a '00 Vette and changed the plugs at 7k miles and noticed that 2 of the plugs were missing the little puck off of the little arm (excuse the technical terms <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="gr_emb.gif" /> ) which meant that they were way off in gap from the others. I drove my car pretty hard most of the time so maybe you will or won't have the same thing happen, but I have read it happening to many other people with those stock platinum plugs so who knows.
