Need quick advice; what plugs w/HEI conversion?

Need some quick advice; I am trying to get my HEI conversion installed today but I can't seem to get any straight advice as to what kind of plugs to install with it. It is an 88 YJ with the 4.2. I bought the HEI distributor from 4WD Hardware and a set of Livewires. Figured I might as well replace the plugs at the same time. I have read a couple of posts that say Platinum plugs burn too hot; one conversion write-up went with Bosch Super plugs; had 2 people tell me not to use anything but plain old Champions. Anybody have experience with some solid advice? I would really like to get this thing installed today. Thanks for your time, Tom

I would think champions My brother had champion on his, but i came with it on there so that is what we reused. But that's not really solid advice

just use the same champion plug you use on the stock set up and gap it to .045 that is what I did on mine. This set up get you to use a wider gap on the plug.

I second what Paul said, stay with what ever type of plugs you like just increase the gap to .045 .

Thanks for the replies; I didn't get around to installing it over the weekend so hopefully I can get to it today/tomorrow. The intructions that came with the distributor said to use a gap of .050 to .055. You recommend .045?

I feel that is what I set mine to, Also you will need bigger wires the stock 258 wires are to thin I think it's a 8MM wire you need. I got a set for a chevy straight 6 the came with the HEI stock.

Thanks, Paul. I bought a set of Livewires to go with the HEI; they were expensive but they are pretty substantial!

Well I got the HEI conversion done last night; I went with the standard Champion plugs. So far I am not real pleased. The Liverwires were not a good fit at all; at $90 I expected much better. I haven't taken the Jeep out on the road yet but I really don't notice any difference in how it runs so far in the garage. Oh well, I guess time will tell!
