Piston hit spark plug? I have a 2001 Camaro Z28 with the LS1, it has long tubes, stall, MSD Coils, NGK TR6's, and TNT 100 HP wet shot of NOS. I have been spraying it at the track for about 2-3 months now and recently the number 1 spark plug electrode was bent and touching the firing tip on my TR6's. It ground out and caused a no 1 misfire code. I replaced it with an AC Delco Irridium plug and it's been fine since then. Any ideas on how this could have happened? Thanks. -Tom.

odd... NOS usually causes the floor boards to fall out 
But yea... not enough fuel w/the N20 or too much timing... resulting in boom boom boom inside the cylinder likely caused it...
