Sparkplug help

A friend of mine drove Nascar trucks andand in Nationwide, he explained to me they test plugs to see what gives them the most power. They start off with a .030 gap and work up from there on a dyno. He would not tell me what gap they found to have have the best power but he did tell me the Champion plugs came out on top. We tested plugs on our Leitch race engine and 604 but we didn't have the budget that Nascar teams have so it was a much shorter testing session. But we are running on pump gas unlike a 3000hp engine
I'm sure things will change when changing the plug gap. Your 1000hp motor I'm sure wasn't a pump gas motor. I too run a 582 BBC in my dragster (7.30's 1/4 @ 183) and if I could get 22HP from changing the gap from.030 to .060 I'M IN!!!

I never said anything about a 1000hp engine, a 604 is a crate engine that is used in circle track cars and we did use pump gas. I thought you would have known what a 604 was. Have a nice day
