Hello fellas

As some of you know i added small shot of nitrous to my 5.0.

I know you go colder plugs so i went and bought Autolite 24 plugs. Where do i need to gap these at? .45 or less? i am throwing in 100 shot of nitrous.

Let me know ASAP so i can go to track this thursday!

Thanks guys

I am using digital 6 ignition, MSD dist, MSD coil also. So .35 is okay? even with the upgraded ignition system?

Hey I was just reading around on another forum and everyone was saying .35 gap as a general recommendation.
