Default spark plugs for Trickflow Lt1 heads?

we just started my dads 383 for the first time with the new trickflows from TEA and could not find any TR6 Ngk's local so to start it we put some stock heat range Autolite 103's . My question is , does Trick flow have a special length plug or do they use typical LT1 spark plugs?


Also , if the 103's are the correct plug will they be ok with pump gas 11.4 /1 compression Or should we go with the Ngk tr6's?

Trickflow's use gasket seat plugs not tapered seat. Autolite 3923 works for me with 11.4 compression.

I have a 396 with Trickflow heads from Lloyd Elliot. The ecu was tuned by Bryan Herter and they both said to go with Autolite 104 plugs. I am also running 12:1 compression.

Lots of good info about gasket plugs on cz28.com

But I would start with the 3923 or 3924 from autolite. The cheap versions should work fine. $1.69 a plug

NGK and champion are easily cross referenced too.
