Default I need a Bright Spark!

Hi Guys, I have another question for you from down under, my Camaro is running a little off atm, so I thought the first place to start is spark plugs, I have a 350 with Edelbrock heads and an MSD ignition on it, it is currently running NGK BKR6E plugs in it, I spoke to my local auto shop and he said these plugs are the 0.8 gap and wondered if I should go to the 1.1mm for the MSD. Any ideas, or should I just stick with what is in it?

Go with the Edelbrock says to use and set the gap to their speck.

I would use a smaller gap, as my experience with using MSD and the wider gap they reccommend hasn't shown good results. I started with .035" gap, and the instructions said to regap to .045-.050" with MSD, but I went back to .035" and it works better.
I'd go slightly wider than the .8mm as that's .31", so maybe .9mm
