I use NGK R5671A-7 (part # 4091). The tip is much less protruding than some.
Thanks bill. I want to confirm that I have the right plugs on my truck. I fear they may be too long. I pulled a couple out last night to see how they're holding up and found the gap was closed! I gapped them all at .35 before install
I've never cared for NGK's in anything except Jap bikes. Do they work well in a small block?
How can I confirm timing or other issues without tearing the front of the motor apart since I don't have access to a bore scope?
Yes, the plugs have the ring washers
About $80.00 new from Walmart. Cheaper on eBay.

It depends on the the 8th digit of your vin...
If it is a Z use GR4 stock no.2635
If it is a 5 use AR6FS stock no.3323
Be careful of the bore scope with such a fat stem,you may get it in the spark hole but you can npt bend it around to look at the valves,,They have mirror attachments but I would not dare with the one listed...
My Snap on one is very skinny...but pricey...

Noted. Yea. My budget is pretty tight. I guess I get to tear the timing cover off tomorrow and inspect the chain.
I don't see how inspecting the chain is going to do you any good. The valves can't hit the plugs. It has to be something to do with the pistons, fuel, heat or carbon related that is causing them to close up.
Timing as, To Much Timing, and causing detonation.
You can check the condition of the timing chain with out removing the timing cover.
pull the dist cap,get a breaker bar and barely move the crank back and forth.while watching the rotor, it should move back and forth without delay...

They work great in pretty much anything, and I have used them in imports, bikes, domestic cars, and even boats.
A good plug is a good plug and I have learned to trust them.
One instance was my Fiat 124 Spyder.
It was a dual overhead cam hemi style design head 4 cyl and I bought a set of Bosch platinums for it and it wouldn't even start, let alone run.
Back to NGK's and it started and ran perfect.
NGK and be done with it.
That's my motto on plugs.
I was dumbfounded when I pulled mine and the ground electrode was bent up and black! Wtf?!
