Spark Plug Gap Just a quick question, I have a 01 SS and I need to get new spark plugs and my car is not here but it will be in a few days, so I want to get ready for a tune-up. Since the car is not here I can't look under the hood and see what the gap is. I went to Auto Zone and they said .040, LMProformance online has them pre-gapped to .050 and the ones I want are pre-gapped to OEM of .059/.060. 
Thanks,
Patrick

Actually, I had a '99 LS1 also but I can't recall what that sticker said.... I didn't have that car very long.
