Hey guys I was wondering if I set my plug gaps correctly when I installed them in my 2.7L six. I think I gapped them .050" but I was reading somewhere that the range I could use is .050" to .060" . I also think I read somewhere that most people running MSD gap theirs to .040" which is a significant differnce it seems. So how would I benifit one way or another if I was to change the gap? Using stock coil and distributor, 6AL box.

With my MSD 6 box, blaster coil and 9mm wires I use .050 with 100 octane unleaded. If I am going to Mexico or an airport circuit where I will be using 100 low lead or 110 leaded I use .055 for a slightly hotter spark along with 2 degrees more advance.
