Default Autolite HT0 plug gap?????

I have a Saleen SC and put Brisk plugs in with the installation. The Brisk plugs are now fouled after a few thousand miles...NOT HAPPY! I just purchased the HT0 plugs with the non-adjustable electrode factory set at .045" I beleive. I ran the single electrode on the Brisk plugs at .032" for forced induction, they were easy to adjust like normal plugs. Do you change the gap for FI on the HT0 plugs to .032" or leave them alone and if you change them....how in the heck do you do it?
Thanks,
Jim

You need a special tool. Jegs sells it for $20-30. And yes you need to gap it.

Do a search. I know some people have rigged things up to adjust it without buying the tool.
