nitrous and plugs
What plugs do you all recomend for a 75-100 shot? What gap?
Do you think the stock fuel system will work? Sorry if I´m being a pain, but I´m really new to this and very decided to use it, but with all the safety possible. Thanks in advance

nothing wrong with asking questions. People who don't ask questions are usually the ones that blow their motor up and blame the nitrous for it. To answer your question I run a Bosch Platinum plug in mine. And for your application keep the gap at around .035. The stock fuel system should be fine for just a 75-100 shot. anything over that i would run an aftermarket pump. Good luck.

I read somewhere once that you are supposed to run "colder" plugs when running nitrous; usually two sizes colder.

Autolite 23's work well for nitrous. They are 2 steps "colder" than stock. Just ask the guy at the parts counter for Autolite 23's.

Yes you are suppose to run a cold plug with nitrous. Autolite 23's work fairly well with nitrous but foul easily if you run enough nitrous. NGK makes a really good nitrous plug.
