When i put the TR6's in i gaped them at .060, cause thats what GM said to do. Should i go back and re gap them to like a .040? I plan to spray 100 shot hopefully in the near future. and don't want to screw the plugs up on the first run.

Thanks guys
Last time I checked, NGK did not recommend changing the gap on these plugs by more than .008.

Just an FYI.

And to answer your question, the heat range is the primary difference in those plugs.

haha, i forgot.

nothing new right now. have not even touched it. im planning on dropping the block off tho go threw it. im going to do new cam bearinds and a clean up. i need to buy rods and heads and put it together. thats it, but i just have not been motivated to do so. the car and racing took its toll on me a bit, i plan on doing it slow and hopefully get back to enjoying it rather then haveing it be like a 2nd job.
