Default Spark plug choice.

I am spraying a 150 wet shot on a stock compression LQ4 (9.5:1). I picked TR6's gapped at .044, but wanted some reassurance I didn't make any mistake. I know the stock LS1 guys running about the same size shot use TR6's and since my compression is even lower than theirs, I figured that would be fine. Comments?

The TR6 will be fine. Don't leave them gapped at .044, close the gap to .035. I have had very good luck with Autolite plugs.

Im running Autolites in mine as well and they seem to keep up quite nicely with 150 shot @ .035

Depending on timing, the TR6 will probably do just fine. I would pull the gap way in from what you have it now though. Keep around 34~36 for the gap.

Thanks for the inputs guys. I'll close the gap up to .035.
