Default Spark Plug Gap

Stock lonblock 94 LT1 with 75 shot and NKG Br7ef plugs. What gap should i run on the plugs? The sticky on this site only said "consult" for gap, so im doing just that.
Any help would be appreciated
thanks

Believe most are around .32 that small of a shot, idk if the 7 would be too cold. Maybe someone else can jump in

As of now I plan to leave them at stock gap as well, roughly .025 but im still not too comfortable.
Im not sure if the 7s are too cold on a 75 but we will see.

If your planning on upping the shot later the 7's are ideal... If a 75 shot is all you plan on running, a br6ef is sufficient.
