Sounds like your 91 Camaro runs really hard and well and kills it at the track.

New motor? Spraying?

~Guessing on use ~ FWIW

I'd probably try TR-6 between the two plugs first if it's in a driver. Unless tune & idle are dialed in right from what I read br7ef tend to foul easier.

If application is racing and spraying ~ 200+ shot, I'd try the br7ef.

I've never had a problem with the 7's fouling in anything.

12.2 compression on spray, I’d go with TR7IX NGK# 3690. You can get a set of 8 on Amazon for around $55.

https://www.summitracing.com/search?...0spark%20plugs

These are the plugs you want. Start out with the -8's on motor then -9's to a 300 shot. Then -10's above that. Do not use iridium plugs for spray.
You don't want a projected tip or resister.
