Default "shorty" spark plug

anyone know anypart numbers that i can tell the people at the local parts supplier in search of a short spark plug for a lt1... i bolted up the headers and installed the stock AcDelco plugs and put then put the stock spark plug boot on- and i got like 1-2mm between the boot and the long tube. its really too close for comfort.
i did a search and called a few local places and they were no help.
any part numbers will be helpfull. if not, the next step i guess is a really big hammer. thanks

The shortest ones I have seen to-date are the Champion Racing plugs. (Im just saying they are the shortest, Im not saying they are the best). I dont have any part numbers for you on them.
