Sparkplugs for Blower Car

[04YELLOWGT]

Ok guys it looks like Ill be checking my sparkplugs tomorrow and I figured Id put some new ones in while they're out. I tried using search but for some reason its not working on my computer.

So my question is, what are the best sparkplugs for car with my setup? Also what are they to gapped at? I remember when I installed the mongoose kit the plugs were supposed to be gapped at a certain spec but I can't remember what it was.

Thanks

PS: I get my car back tomorrow so I'll have lots of pics, it looks mean as hell with the new parts.

NGK TR6's. I forget what they are gapped to.

NGK is a kick ass company. Go with TR6's or BR7EF's. The BR7s are 2 steps colder, the TR6's are 1 step colder. I don't want to chance detonation, so I run the BR7's gapped at .033 . You can gap them between .030-.035 and you'll be fine. Make sure the engine is cold when you remove them. Torque the new ones to 13lbs. Try not to use anti-seize. If you insist, use VERY little amounts.

It is if you try to spin it to be so

It is merely a simple (albeit loaded) question.

LOL I haven't decided yet. I'm running the DRs I wrecked on right now, kind of bad luck but at the same time I’m wearing the bad luck off of them.

I think I’m going to buy another set of rims and mount all street tires on them, so when I will be traveling further than 20-30mins away I'll throw those on. The thing is I don’t travel any further than Fort Wayne unless I’m going to race or in this case getting the car tuned so its not like if I would get caught in rain I couldn't just leave the car where its at if I’m on the DRs.

We'll see I guess, just glad to have her back and running.


By the way I picked up TR6s because nobody carries the BR7s but I got BR7s on order. Three of the sparkplugs were fried and putting all new sparkplugs in really made a difference and cleared up the problem it was having. I think it might have toasted them when my MAF was freaking out causing everything to go lean then rich over and over.
