Spark Plug Question
What plugs are people using on a I\C Maggied car?
Would the stock ones be OK?
I am going with a 3.1 pully, cam, lt headers, high flow cats,160 stat, and plugs all at once. Getting ready to start the install on Monday.
Should be right around 500rwhp.

with the 3.1 you will be closer to 450rwhp but it will be a fun 450 lol.

If everything will be stock (cam, manifolds) then I would suggest a 3.2 and alky.
give a buzz if you need a crank pinning tool 609-752-0321
cam,3.1,alky= over 500/450ish
3.2 ,alky = 460ish rwhp
These are rough estimates

those running 2.8/2.9 pullys are in the 500+ rwhp range but that is with all the boltons and AI.
