Default NGK TR55's

Are NGK TR55's the correct plug for a 91 L98?

I used the TR55's in my stock LT4, they are a good plug. I have TR6's now with the 383.

That link is great, but it doesn't list NGK TR55's. Is that an all inclusive list?

Zix, thanks for the input, but I'm not sure L98 and LT1 spark plugs are interchangebale. Are they?

NGK lists L98 1990-91 as FR4 or FR4GP they have an iridium also, I believe it is a UR4 (forgot the rest sorry) I hope this helps m7

I'm using the TR55 in my 383 (LT1) and like them a lot. Mine are gapped to .035, btw.

I have the NGK TR-55 platinums in my LT1 and have been extremely pleased with them. I set mine at the stock gap.
