What do you guys think about this? They didn't say specifically if you were to do this radiusing yourself, or what, but it seemed interesting. I know that benefits pretty much will be nil, but it'd be a free mod for possibly better combustion if I don't screw it up. Ever heard of this? Like on our NGK plugs that most of us use, take a file or something and instead of having the plug tip squared off. Anyone know what I'm vaguely talking about?

Also, what plug gaps are you guys using and with what coils? I'm just doing some thinking, not actually going to spend money on anything currently... I'm using the Bosch Blue coil right now, but someday in the future, if whatever ignition setup I use needs a regular style coil, I think I'm going to use the MSD Blaster2 coil which seems to go over well with everyone who I've heard of using it.
