could someone out there please tell me what the correct plug gap is
186 with VK electroinc dissy
went  surfing the net and one site had the reading at 60 thou,,
 I think that is just a little bit too big? ???
at the moment my plugs are set at 36 thou.
Is this the correct setting
cheers Tony

Hi Tony.

If your VK electronic dissy is also using its matching HEI type coil & it's fed with 12 volts, then yes 60 thou (1.5mm) is the GM-H recommended setting.

In my shop I have found that 1.3mm (52 thou) is better & the spark plugs last longer.
