Is the center electrode completely gone? It's hard to tell from that shot.

Yes the electrode and ground are completely missing. That picture was taken a Long time ago when I first noticed a rough idle after about a 15 mile wide open throttle race with my roomates Z28 on the way home from work. I got home after whooping his *** and noticed the idle was horrible. First thing I did was check my plugs. After noticing that I replaced them all and still had the rough idle. Took it to the dealership and got my warranty shoved up my @ss. Fast forward to right now. When I pulled the heads off I noticed the intake valve for that cylinder wasn't seating closed all the way. Thats why I have a built long block on the way. Might as well do it right the first time. Don't worry Rob, you'll have a built block someday. You keep fu(king with Don and it might happen sooner than you think.

Man that plug looks terrible. What kind of mods / tune were you running at the time your bad idle situation started happening. I was also curious as to what reason the dealer gave you for shuving your warranty up your ahhhh you know?

Nothing major, JLP upper pulley, JLP ram air and the worst: off the shelf chip. Never again will I run a chip with a dyno tune to go with it. Especially after spending $6000 on a motor.
