Just wondering what anyone thinks I should gap my plugs at for a dry 75 shot? I have full MSD ignition, (TFI blaster coil, billet distributor, 6AL box, 2-step limiter, and 8.5 helicore wires) Before I had nitrous I had them gapped at .060" but I was thinking maybe to go smaller because the nitrous might blow the spark out like boost. Is this true?

Yes nitrous can blow spark out, go with a .035 to be on the safe side.

What do you do with a similar setup on a DD? If I drive the car daily and spray it at the track, would the stock gap be too much?

Mine is a DD. I have my plugs always gapped to .035.

I ran .035" on my convertible DD as well.
