if its all motor why use the tr6's i thought the 55's were better N/A and 6's for Nitrus cars. In anycase, 45 thousanths sounds good to me.

Hes got a head/cam car, they make a bunch more power than stock so a cooler plug isnt a bad idea.

Even though they are pre-gapped, always double check the gap before putting them in.


I gapped mine at .036
