Question NGK TR5 OR NGK TR55 spark plug

Hi everyone;

Well, it is getting close to new spark plugs, and I believe the only difference in the 2 plugs is the gap. The TR5 is a .035 gap, and the TR55 is a .050.

Which plug would be the correct one for my stock 2001 Z28 (lid and cat back)?

Thanks in advance.

Because the factory plug gap is 0.060" and 0.035 doesn't get it for NA apps. The 0.050" gap of the TR55 works excellent in both of our LS1 cars.
