Default Low Resistance plug wires....

In CHP they put low resistant plug wires on and got 6.5 hp and 18lbs of TQ. It was on an LT1. I have an LS1. Have 48k on stock wires. Could i see a gain anything like this. My LS1 experiance says no. But its got me thinking. And what plugs shoud i go with? No N2O,daily driver.

And gap those plugs at .050-.055". Check out Thunderracing.com, I think you can get the plugs and wires from them. O'riley's usually has a ncie selection of NGK plugs, and make sure you dab a little never-cease on the plug threads before you screw them in, it'll make life much easier.
