Spark plug recommendation for 6-71 SBC
Just getting back into hot-rodding after a 30-year hiatus!!! Building a Chev 355 with a 6-71 blower using World S/R Torquer heads, KB blower pistons (8.5:1), Comp 224/226/112 "blower" cam, MSD 6AL & billet distro, 2x Edelbrock 600s re-jetted for the blower. World Products tech sheet says I need taper-seat 5/8" reach plugs. Blower supplier says I need to go 1-2 heat ranges colder than "normal" on the plugs. That's it! That's all I have to go on to pick plugs! The counter monkeys at the big box parts stores are no help cuz I can't give em a year-make-model to plug into their computers (motor is going into a T-bucket).
A little guidance would be appreciated!!

i would recommend NGK # r5673-8 or r5673-9. The -8 is one step hotter than the -9.
