TR6's on a Stock L

[chevytosvt]

So basically I bought the wrong plugs, I think :shrug: TR6's, will these still be ok on the L, if so what gap should I go with completely stock with a JLT CAI on the way, and in a couple weeks a 4lb lower,+tune? I'm changing them tomorrow.

Thanks,
Aaron :thumbsup:

The tr6's will be fine for your soon to come 4# addition/tune. Gap them at
.036 - .038. Have fun changing them!:-D

You'll be fine. I'd personally cut back the ground straps and gap them at 0.032-0.034" Make sure to clean the threads with no gritty feel as you screw them in. Then torque them to 12-13ft lbs and no more.

.040'' gap sounds good to me stock.

Why not just wait a couple of weeks? You'll be pulling them out and regapping them? OR, just hold onto them and keep them brand new until the mods?

I had the dreaded spark plug tick, So I figured might as well throw new plugs in while I fixed that.. :nonono:

Either way, I understand I will have to re gap them come the 4lb'er and the tune

Cut back the ground strap :shrug:

Racer's trick from way back where you cut back the ground strap where the electrode tip is slightly exposed when looking straight on at the tip. This allows for the A/F mixture to be exposed to a better flame front.

are you doing a dyno tune?

Got one side done, my hands are pretty sore from work taking a break then doing the other side. Its definitely easier to put it back together than it is taking it apart!

Yes I'm getting a dyno tune dune. I was told I should check out Fast specialties in Vancouver, only about a half hour from me. :shrug:

Got everything done, Passenger side rear plug was just barely in the hole, Got everything reinstalled, and torqued it idles a lot better. From what I've heard plugs are the hardest install on the L! So let the modding begin! I'm still getting an interior clicking sound :shrug: :whine:
