What Heat Range Plug after A-trim to SQ-trim Swap?
I recently swapped from my a-trim to a new SQ-trim and I was doing a tune-up and was trying to decide what plugs to use. With the A-trim, I was using Autolite 24's gapped at .36 and everything seemed fine (no noticeable spark blow-out at High Rpm). Someone told me I should be using the Autolite 23 with my setup. Will going to the 23's do anything for performance or idle quality better than 24's? Will it help detonation or blow-ou? What do you corralers recommend?

Well, I decided to go with the Autolite 3923's. What should I gap these plugs to? The previous 3924's were gapped at .36 without any problems. Should I just be safe and gap these smaller? Any suggestions?
