    Yes, you want to keep a smaller plug gap w/forced induction. A smaller gap will ensure ignition in denser air/fuel mixtures from forced induction.

    I gapped mine either .030 or .035. I don&#39;t remember which one it was for sure. Don&#39;t go any wider than .035 or you might blow the spark out.
