Default Spark plugs

Working on my Ls6 swap into my Z28. Got a Ls6 crate enigne from scogging dickey. It came with brand new AC plugs, I removed a fairly new set of TR5 out of my old engine less than 500 miles. Thinking about just running the factory plugs any objections to that?

Either of the plugs you mention should work.

If your even thinking about ever running nitrous, the TR5's would be a minimum.. TR6's would be advised. If your looking to put a cam/full bolt ons in it, my advice would be the same.

I run TR6's in just about everything.
