Happy Fathers Day, Guys. I'm going to spend at least part of mine putting spark plugs in the GMC.

That's exactly what I put in Dwayne, at the same gap. I had AC R46SZ plugs in for the last 22,000 miles. They look amazingly good.

Quick follow up:
I got the plugs all changed out, used NGK XR51X plugs I got from Applied GMC. Gapped them at .038, used anti seize on the threads and torqued them to 25 ft lbs. I also removed the distributor cap and scraped some corrosion off the terminals and cleaned up the rotor. Fired it up when I was done and it ran smooth as silk. I got all this done and took a shower before the kids arrived and grilled up some steaks and vegetables, ate all that plus a baked potato and had apple pie with ice cream for desert.
Happy Fathers Day indeed!
