Default Spark Plugs

Well, I had some things happen to one of my coils, and the dealership told me that it fouled the #2 plug all to hell. I figure its a good time for some autolites then.
What do yall think about the HT2? its one heat range hotter, but the factory heat range for the trucks, so shouldnt it be safe in our engines too, and give a little more power?
If I plan on spraying though, wouldnt I use the ht0?
Ive got a damn good deal on these, and looking for some advice..
Thanks!

No matter what getting "hi-performance" spark plus will net absolutly ZERO gain in power.

I do plan on putting the granatelli COPs on, so I want something that might help their gain out a little...might have to look in to the ht2s...

You will not gain any extra power with aftermarket coils if you're N/A.

All a hotter plug will do is keep the burn cleaner. NOT more power, just cleaner. It is used for mostly low rpm city driving. It may help the fouling problem, but it may also ping like a sucka because of pre-ignition. I would stay with stock specs.
