On my '97 V6, I use the SplitFire (Non-Platinum) plugs (personal
preference). I've tried the Champion Truck Plugs but didn't like the
performance degradation. Set the plugs at .050" - .055" IF you're going to
use the MSD 6A (or 6T) box...otherwise, leave them at the stock setting of
.045". I found that the Tubular Intake System works much better than the
10" (or 12") Air Filter setup...atleast on the V6.
The stock muffler on the V6 Dak's also needs to be replaced with something
else...Flowmaster, Borla, MagnaFlow, whatever...they all work the same and
all have their Good and Bad sides. (I've tried the MagnaFlow and
Flowmaster, but like the Flowmaster much better.)
You can see a list of the mods on my site as well....
