I am going to go get some NGK TR55s for my new, forged 356 with a P1 on it. What is the right gap to set them at???

Thanks,
Dave

.035 should do the trick. That is what I have mine set at.

IMO, I would go with TR6's gapped at 0.035"... as they come out of the box.

Bill,

Thanks, that's where I set them. Mine were gapped at between 50 and 60 out of the box. Glad I checked.
