Hi,
I agree with both previous post to answer your question about plugs and gap but, there's no need to change plug brand. The AC Delco R42LTS will do what ever you need. As far as gap goes, at 18 psi a tight 0.035 is just fine. You can go to 0.034 if it makes you feel better but, you will see no change in performance. Now, if you go to 20 psi I would recommend 0.034.
