I have a iron 350, with the 113 alumn heads. I have put in the delco plug for the an 89 vette. I think I gapped them at .035.

Ive not drove the car alot, and its starting to get a studder under load. Ive checked my cap n rotor button. I'm thinking I may have gapped the plugs wrong. Is 035 correct? Or should I raise or lower it?

Just pulled one out, yes they need replaced.

I have delco FR5LS in it. I'm wondering about putting some of the delco shorties in it since I have headers. Any comments or suggestions on that?

Stock ign run .035.

I ran .045 with an MSD and aftermarket coil.

Heat range is going to be more important.

You should be fine with .035.

Misses will start to come on more with too large a gap, than with too small.
