Default Tr6 problems tune or??

I did some work on my truck new long tubes, full exhaust, headgaskets, I installed a fresh set of tr6 iridium plugs.

Double checked everything no loose plug wires leaks or problems. Not tuned yet.


I am getting missfires at idle. every cylinder missfire.

I want a colder plug going to run a little nitrous. Is this tune related or ???

Not much of a gap there if that reading you posted is actually .004, are you sure that you didn't typo the gap numbers.... Should look like this .040 +/-

I don't think I would run a fine wire plug with nitrous. Something like a BR7EFS would be my choice.
