curt, are you using the stock wires? i just took my magnecor wires off and put the stockers back on. i have not test it yet but will tomorrow. and ill regap my plugs to .22 thanks justin
I run .022 for the best results on the stock ignition. Each car seems to be different, you will most likley be able to push the limits of the stock ignition too so keep that in mind.

True, but 0.28-0.29" isn't a very large gap to begin with, and a 25% reduction in the gap (e.g. to a 0.21-0.22") is a fairly sizable 'tad'.
A smaller gap results in a shorter duration, weaker spark, which tends to go in the wrong direction where burn efficiency and power is concerned. This is the reasoning behind aftermarket products that improve spark energy and duration (e.g. MSD). In this case, it's a matter of the factory ignition not being capable of handling cylinder pressures far in excess of what the factory intended as opposed to the specified gap being too large.
