I didn't realize that you still had the IT20s I last put in that truck in there. I thought for some reason that you changed the plugs when you first got the truck from Ed. IT20s are definitely too hot for your new setup. Then again, so are TR6s, but it's your truck, you can run what ya like

It's my fault for NOT asking and just assuming, (insert kick self in *** here)
No harm done and all is well again EVEN BETTER AMOF
AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP THIS MORNING SAL,
It ran great on the way back home, it's sounding awesome, and I'm sure that new Belt will take care of the slipping issue
Unfrigging believable on the Upper Pulley though hu
That thing must be on there with a million lbs of TQ
OR SOMETHING ???
We "tried" to change the upper pulley, a Hi Torque impact tool wouldnt do it,
we snapped a Snap On harden'd Steel Socket trying, broke Sal's KB Tool, even struck out using a 1/2 Breaker Bar and a HUGE piece of pipe as leverage : o () "YIKES" THAT PULLEY IS NOT COMING OFF EVER
: o (
Thats OK I kind of like the Boost anyway, woo hoo !!!! hehehehehe....
Thanks Sal, U Da Man ...

I have been running Tr6 plugs for 15 months now as reccomended by JDM when they built the motor. He actually uses them in trucks making a great deal more power than mine. All this season on about 22#s of boost. I never experienced any noticeable spark blowout and the idle quality is acceptable.
Can't wait to see how they held up. When my truck goes in for work I want to read the plugs, and see what they were gapped at. They were put in when I ran an 8# lower. Now I run a custom 11" lower.

I agree Jim thats why I put them in I dont like the idle with BR7's so we'll dial it in with 6's instead.
As V once said to me, Ronbo I run TR6's and not once have I ever hurt one,
(and we all know how many passes he makes and how often "and the et's")
As for NOT being able to pull Boost, if I have to change the lower ring I will but as YOU know there is NOTHING like having this insane amount of TQ,
it's just amazing and it makes for quite the fun truck doesnt it
