TR6s come out of the box at .039, I'm not sure what is a good setting for nitrous though, I'll leave that one to the nitrous experts on here.

i left mine right there, and with the tnt 100 shot, i get no misfires and no knock all the way down the 1/4 according to autotap. so, if those are the things to look at to see how cars running, then i guess im perfect. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

.039 is fine. Just check 'em to make sure they're still there.

Not the best plug or gap for nitrous use. For NA, yes, that would be fine.

My motor is N/A, so .050 gap be fine then? What do you recommend for a cammed car with midly ported heads, N/A only.
