Your going to want to go to a colder plug. You'd probrably be blowing out the spark with the stockers too.

I couldn't agree with equandt more myself i have sprayed my stock motor truck with 150 over 400 time and 40 bottles of nitrous and the new kit is 175 a little over really i have sprayed about 15 or so bottles with the tr6's never had a problem. just make sure you change them every once in a while they tend to not last that long. but they are cheap.

~.035 should be good for 100 shot.

Can you spray a 100 shot on stock spark plugs?

In a word, no. You'll what to, as already stated, go to a colder range plug with a .035" gap to prevent detonation.

I'm using the NGK TR6IX iridium plugs with very good success. They are pre-gapped at .035".

You can go with a little wider and preserve some mileage/efficeincy, about .038" .003 can make a difference. I use .035" for 150 and .032" for 175. TR7 for 200 shots at .033". You can spray on stockers but as mentioned its not a good idea!
