What plugs do you run?

I currently run ac delco platinum plugs and have had no complaints, but in an effort to find my not starting in wet weather problem I am gonna change plugs and wires. I'm going with MSD wires. I was thinking just go with NGK TR55 plugs, but not sure yet. I plan on throwing a 75 shot at it shortly. What plugs should I run for that? Can I run plugs made for nitrous applications without any problems before I spray the car?

I am using NGK tr6 plugs. Use the 2 heat range colder plugs for nitrous, it will run fine NA. Thats what I am using.

Splitfire SF10D's.

Your "no start when wet" problem is probably your coil. My old '95 had the same problem.

How many miles do the TR6s usually last?

I tend to run champions, no real reason, just the brand I settled on

are the ngk's better than the delco platinum plugs on a mostly stock car? The ngk's last for 15k miles correct?
