I put them in my truck and it does idle different - sometimes shakes a bit. I figure these will only last about 10k miles and probably foul out by then, so I might put in tr55's since I'm using just a small shot. If I remember right mine were at about .038

I'm thinking ill probably only spray a 75-100 shot, so I'll see what happens at the track with the tr6's...maybe try it out on tr55's...

Stay with the TR6's for spray! I use a gap of .045 with a H/C and 150 shot no problem, you should be fine at that...
