    Copper or Platinum cores? Is it worth the extra money to go to platinum? I plan on the following: Intense PCM, TDCRacing FWI, Pacesetter headers, 3.4" pulley, and TDC plug wires to start. Thanks for any info guys!

    I run copper and most recommend them for our cars.

    Stock heat range part number is AL606 (I just installed some last weekend). Gapped at .55

    Many recommend AL104's when you get the 3.4 pulley on.

    cool then i'll probably stick with the coppers and save the few bucks/plug. I'm goin to go ahead and throw in the 104's gapped at .050" in anticipation of the new pulley. I don't want to have to buy another set of plugs when I get the new pulley put on. Anyone else hav an opinion, or is everyone cool with the coppers? thanks again

    I'd wait for the pulley install to put in those plugs/wires.

    Reason being is you want the hottest spark possible and you don't need a colder spark yet with no mods.

    Copper plugs. Any copper plug needs to be changed out at about 6000-9000 miles. so if your going to be putting a pulley on after that time frame then you may just want to stick with a stock heat range plug. Which would be a 606.

    bluegtp91 -- thanks for the tip. Would there be an harm that could be done if I put them on early? and are you saying wait until I actually put the smaller pulley on? Thanks man

    I just say wait because with a boosted car you want the hottest spark possible IMO...it is when you get to dropping pulley sizes that you want to get a colder spark...I run Autolite 103's...but I have too many mods...that's my problem
