spark plug gaps are a trial and error type of thing.

It also depends on the condition if your ignition
system and type of fuel being used.

Start off around .032 and work your way down until
it stops misfiring.

If you read my post, I asked if anyone was running a similar setup, and if they were, to share what gap worked best for them. Sorry I like to be a little more specific than that thread you linked. Next time I'll ask you before I start another thread, to make sure its never been talked about.
