Default Spark plugs

I bought this 98 Vette that was built into a 383 stroker. I have no idea when the plugs were changed last. The manual calls for .60 on the stock engine. Should the stroker be gapped differently or as the manual instructs.

Originally the recc gap was .060 However most now always gap them at ..040----
TR55 NGK's are the most used performance plugs---either using the standard plug or in some combination of Platinum or Iridium---

Thank you very much. I wasn't sure since it's a stroker with long tube headers if the gap was different or not. I appreciate your reply.
