What plug with my 388 ci LT1?
What plug with my 388 ci LT1?
I was thinking of using NGK TR6's. I have a 388 ci LT1 that has a .584/.579 cam, fully modded with ported heads and 11.7:1 compression. What plugs should I run? I was thinking NGK TR6's but what gap do you guys recommend? I won't be running NOS since I have hyper pistons. Just let me know if you recommend different plugs. Also in mind are NEW! Autolite XP Iridium spark plugs which provide the biggest spark and Iridium is suppose to be the best thing out. THanks

I use the R5671a-7 in my 383 gapped at .035". I bought them from Advance Auto, using the part #4091. They are a special order though, but it only took one day to get them.

I use the NGKTR55's witn no NOS. The NGKTR6's are a colder plug. If you are not going to use NOS then the TR55's are a better plug for your application.

Irridium would be more a longevity thing than any other "benifit" and the multiple electrode stuff is sales gimicks, ever notice none of the head or engine guys recommend any of that stuff?
Re: What plug with my 388 ci LT1?
I would probably try one step colder plug then the TR6 for your application. The rule of thumb if I remember correctly is for every increase of 75-100HP you go one step colder.
