I'm going to be installing New spark plugs this weekend Autolite xp104 but I don't know what gap to put them too. My mods are php intake spacer, k&n cai ,180 thermostat,93 octane Lidio tune, steeda pulleys and 4.10s. I'm also going to install oem c.o.p with a set of Granatelli HIGH OUTPUT Coil On Plug Connectors 4 Valve. Any advice word really be appreciated. Thank you

I believe the gap is .052 to .056.
ALWAYS gap plugs before you install them , except for iridium plugs.
I gap mine on the low side... in this case .052 so as the plugs wear they will still be in range.

I was going to get the xp103 but I talked to Lidio and he said that with his tune I don't need colder plugs

Gapped my new plugs at .054 the happy medium with a little dab anti-seize on threads & some dielectric grease inside the connector boots.
Motor purrrrrrrrrrrrs & runs like a champ.
