OK--This is still a issue with the 5.7 and nitrous---No one will help me out with a colder range spark plug for the application on my 5.7 when using nitrous,If anyone has someone they know that uses nitrous on a 5.7 could you please get the plug number from them??? I use a zex perimeter plate system and last year only sprayed 100 hp shot,This year after my motor re-build I want to spray a 150-200 shot and want to cover all my bases.Zex has no application for plugs witch is weird also ngk say's just use the stock plugs which i believe is wrong,My engine builder was in touch with autolite and they have no application at this time!!!!! HUMMMM very wierd the motor's been on the market for 9 years--Boy who wants to partner with me and make some colder range plugs for the 5.7???? Thanks Steve

Here's a discussion about spark plugs over at lxforums.com
http://www.lxforums.com/board/f286/question-spark-plugs-186727/
The consensus is that the stock plug for a 6.1L Hemi is one heat range colder than a stock 5.7L Hemi Plug.
They also list some that are two and three steps colder than a stock 5.7 plug.
Read the post carefully as there is some misinformation that is corrected by later posts.
Hope this helps,

It's nice to hear that your project is moving forward.
I'm still collecting parts, but at least I'm moving forward. I just bought a center console and shifter off a guy on FABO. Good guy, he even delivered!
Next thing is to get the motor running on a test stand. But that wil have to wait, I am about to tear down my existing garage and build a new three car garage.
