Default what plugs to run

I am installing my trick flow heads. I am wondering what the best plug to run is.

I have always stuck with the autolite but am wondering now is if i should change it up because i am searching for every bit juice i can get.
I am also running a 200 shot of nitrous.

Maybe the E3s or something along those lines?

What ignition system are you running and what is your CR?
Free bump...

so far so good. ive been running the nitrous for about 5 months. i did retard the timing quite a bit. I started with small shots and checked the plugs. kept going from there. and so far so good. it runs really nice.

Can you take a pic of your setup for me. I might look into NOS as well.

I'd look around on late model forums, like like the Corral.net forums. You're more likely to find people there with experience with power adders.

MSD recommends copper core plugs and I've found that one step colder helps them last longer.
