Time to change plugs. What would be the best for a N/A no N2O price doesn't really matter, and what gap? Thanks in advance.

NGK TR6, I was running NGK TR55s. My motor seems to like the TR6s. My old cammed 5.3 liked the TR55s.

I had switched to the ngk tr55s and my truck ran like crap with them. Switched back to the AC/Delco Iridium and it ran great.
