Lol, ^ probably very true. My boyfriend and I regapped his plugs to .032 (his car was having some misfire issues) and afterwards his car ran like $#!^ any time he got on it. Talked to Vince at Trifecta and he recommended .028. Regapped them and its been running great ever since! I couldn't imagine if we had opened them up to .045! I honestly don't think it would have ran at all!
I did the same thing. Once I hit triple digits, car was sputtering like a moFo and acting like a bucking bronco
IMHO
Buy AC Delco 41-108s. Verify that that gap is .028 before putting them in your kappa. [Mine were dead on in the pack of 8 I received]
Drive the car
Thrash the car a little [High Speed and High RPM, wimps need not apply]
If it runs good stick with this. If not, then experiment with gap or going to a colder plug depending on your setup.

well since going to .045 in my car hasnt had any problems even going wot in 1-3rd. dunno maybe the autolite xp produces a better spark than the ac-delco?

.45 is high but if its working for you then more power to ya. You mentioned Auto XP, i personally had these on and have recently replaced them since I was having the car seem to misfire in 3rd a lot. I then gapped the stock AC Delco's to .32 and they worked like a charm. AC Delco are actually made by NGK. I then bought NGK Power 4 iridiums and have not even had one hickup. AutoliteXP's imo are GARBAGE and its a well known fact that they have issues in the LNF community.

lol nice to know AFTER i install them. :P yeah i usually get ngk for my vehicles but i didnt feel like ordering them and just bought whatever advanced auto had on hand. def gonna order ngk if these give me problems.
Yesterday I decided to clean every coilpack with Maf cleaner, connections and all and added dielectric to the plugs and coilpacks. Wow, cars idle is so much smoother!
