1958 Chevy 235 engine. I recently installed a Pertronix Ignition unit. I have not re-gaped the plugs as of yet. Anyone running this setup, What gap would you recommend? Thanks, Jerry

Here is the recommendation from the Pertronix site.

"In most cases increasing the factory recommended gap by .005 improves the engine performance."
