-I'm finishing up my install, and all that's left is put the plugs, wires, and fill it up with oil. I have NGK 1283 (BKR7E-11) spark plugs. What should i gap them at?

-Also what kind of oil did you all use for your break in, and after your break in. Where i work, i have access to all Mobil 1 products, but i heard to use a Non-detergent oil for break in, and to use a heavier oil after and a non-synthetic oil, since synthetic is so thin? What weight oil should i use?

 

use .030 gap on the plugs

Run 10w30 std oil i use just plain castrol gtx 10w30. break it for about 3-4 oil changes and then replace with synthetic.

You can gap them a little higher if you have an aftermarket ignition. Mine are gapped at .035 with MSD SCI and blaster SS.

 

very true if you got igntion you can gap them higher.

 

The break in period...do you go to regular oil no matter what? I thought it was only if you changed the pistons. So if I go turbo, I should changed from synthetic to regular oil for the break in period? Thanks.

 

so...... wanna steal some mobile 1 tri-synth 10-30 for us all??? hehehe.

 

i just got a set of them too . im running nitrous though
i was gonna run .30, but i have msd dig 6+. should i go .035 too?
how can you tell if its gapped right for your application?
sorry if that sounds stupid, but i have no clue.
