Default FINALLY, i ordered my exhaust!

after about 6 months of saving up....i went ahead and ordered my Pacesetter race style LT's, the 02 extensions and two 18" sweet thunders. I also went ahead and picked up for 8.5 MSD wires in RED and some NKG's!

ill keep everyone posted

Are you supposed to gap the NGK's or just throw them in...its a N/A SS
Thanks!

You should always check the gap on the plugs before puting them in the car. The TR55's should be in the .050-.055 range. Also get your self new GM mainifold gaskets or reuse your old ones, dont use the ones that come with your pacesetters.

I love mine, they were the best thing for the money, also the TSP parts were great, they needed flared abit, but the price was also right. Enjoy, I would get the Arp studs too, the black pace bolts look like ****. Also they do come with make your own extensions.
