No, it's a 2V plug. It will work with nitrous, but he should check the gap.

They are actually a fully threaded plug are revised plug from the old model I forget which one it is...they don't reach any further into the chamber. But you are right they are a 5.4L truck plug.

Depends on where you fill up...right now its about 4.85 a pound...so 48.50 to fill it. Sometimes when the shops are out there is a place that is selling it for 6.00 a pound (some radio shop by my house). But thats a last resort.

I actualy heard that you do need to remove timing.. something like 1 degree for every 50shot or so. i personaly took off 2 degrees at a 150 shot but i think im gonna take a little more off when i go to the track just to be safe. i think i got the chart off of either the zex website or NOS. might wanna check
