Just stage 2 right now. But that will change very soon. What close the gap as I boost more?

How's the ss/tc treating you? You like it better than the sc?

zfr6fix-11 are those a step colder?

And what were you boosting at with the 2.7 on? Did you dyno? Did you take her to the track?

I know me if I got rid of the sc. I'd miss the whine. No offense everyone has turbo and bovs. A sc is much more rare imo. Would you say your sc was faster than you tc?

Iridium doesnt do well with Boost.

Copper is the best way to go.

BKR7E - stock number 4644 (old number 6097)

You always want to have the biggest gap possible. On a mostly stock stage 2 vehicle .040 (stock gap) will be fine. Once you start going lower pulley sizes you just have to start dropping the gap till you find the best one.

I run a 2.9 and my plugs are gapped at .038 currently and the car runs great. When I was running Iridiums they had to be gapped slightly closer at about .036 to run right with the 2.9.

Autolites are 3922...

Personally, i like those better..

One step colder you may need to have ordered..

Autozone and stuff can get it same day if early enough.
