Default Spark plugs and gap size E85...HELP NGK?!

So I've been running NGK BKR7E with my motor for a while now. I decided to change my plugs and the guy at Advanced Auto parts says that part # is no longer available or that plug isnt. So he recommended me some AC Delcos. He said its the same thing, because when he entered the part number for the NGK's, it crossed over and gave the part number for the AC Delco's.

Sound about right? or no? Im about at 375-400whp if that matters and on E85. Im at 17 lbs.

the bkr7e is the same plug. the -11 just means a preset .044" gap. stick with the 4644, they have a tighter gap to begin with

Yes but if your local auto parts store dose not have them in stock you could always ask to see it they have these ones too.

I talked to one of my guys here and he said I should have mine gapped around .022-.028ish. I'm about at 17 lbs...375-400whp.
