What spark plugs to get?

Hey guys I am looking to put some new spark plugs while doing the header install tomorrow and was wondering what plugs to use. I have NOS 100 shot on the car that I have not used yet. Wanted to wait till I have the right plugs in it. Was thinking the NGK TR6's....
OPINIONS please... Thanks. Keith

You're not going to want to spray with TR55's. You won't lose any N/A power with TR6's....some of my fastest N/A runs in my LT1 were with nitrous plugs in there, go figure.

from who I have talked to and heard is that the TR55's will hold up to a 125 shot and the TR6's will be great for up to 150 shot. some people have better performance with the TR6's than others do it is all in the tune though.

If you are spraying with no other mods you could get away with the TR55s. If you have some mods like bolt-ons or internal stuff like a cam I would recommend TR6 plugs. If it was me I would run the TR6s so I would not have to worry about melting a plug.
