King, as you know, we use the TR6IX in our Camaro/nos and Autolite 3910 in our BBC w/200 nos.

By far the best nitrous plug you can buy.

I just talked to NGK and they said that the iridium plugs are great to run with nitrous. He said they would hold up better and last longer than the old reliable TR6 that we use. He also said that the newer style motors LS1 and modular ones seem to run much better with these new plugs.

I have a set of TR7ix plugs which is one step colder than the TR6ix. I wonder if that is to cold for up to a 150 shot of nitrous? I run a 100 at the present time but will be moving up to the 150. The guy at NGK said they would be fine for the 150 but how will the car be NA will it be rich as hell? Maybe I should bring these back for the TR6ix?

I'm not against the NGK plugs or anything. They're good plugs. But if you're looking to make some REAL power (AKA your BBC setup) then Autolite is the way to go.

But for somebody to say they don't work in GM's is just foolish...

Autolite plugs are in almost EVERY big power car out there. From Outlaw 10.5, to Pro-Stock, Top Sportsman, Comp Eliminator, Pro-Modified, Pro 5.0, and even NASCAR.

Autolite plugs are not 'cheap spark plugs'.

Autolite 3910 is a favorite amongst Pro Stock and CE racers. But at $2.25/ea., people often look for other plugs.
