I personally will only use a/c delco plugs in my gms. In my buick i am going to put a/c delco iridium plugs in it. The factory gap is 60 thousands. So thats what i am going to gap them at.

Paul...you should be running Autolite 605'*. at a .50 or .55 gap. Your running too cold of plug for your set up.

On a stock, or very lightly modded set up, the 605 gapped at .055. Once you start bringing up your boost levels a bit, then drop to a 104 and gap .050 to .055. You really wont need the 104 until your boost is over 10
