I am having a hard time finding plugs for my car now.. I just installed a procharger and want to go 1 step colder with my gt-40x heads. The stock plug for these heads is autolite 764. There is no such thing as a autolite 763, so what do I do ??? Anyone know what plug to try for 1 step colder, I would also use NGK or autolite.... Please help, i've tried searching the plug manufacturers sites with no real luck.

That would be great, as i am having a hell of a time trying myself. If you could get me 1 step colder and 2 steps colder that would be great.

thanks
Steve

Ok heres the results. I just got off the phone with the NGK tech. For GT-40X heads:
1 step colder than factory is Part#TR6IX, stock#3689 (summit 7.99/ea)
2 steps colder is part#TR7IX, stock#3690 (summit 7.99/ea)
These are for the NGK Irridium plugs

Figured i would share the info.
