A few questions for you guys.

I was wondering what spark plugs most of you are running? Vortech says to use stock heat range plugs. I went with TR6's. I was just wondering what and why. I was tring to help fight knock well see what happens I am getting close to finishing installing my setup. I have some pics I will post when I get time. Also for you guys that are runnig Dual Walbros are you installing them in series or are you making a custom Y ETC...? And where are all of you taping in to the intake for your boost gauges?

I'm running tr6 plugs gapped at .040" with my supercharger. I know a few Lightning guys doing the same. boost=heat=detonation, so a little colder heat range plugs can't hurt imho

Also, on the trucks you can "t" into the fuel pressure regulator line for the boost gauge (at least that what my instructions say, but I haven't got around to hooking the darn thing up). I don't know where the fuel pressure regulators are on the ls1s, but it could be another possibility if it's easy to get to. Mine is on the driver's side of the intake manifold.
