I know it's not a straight 6 but I could use some help anyway. My uncle just purchased an '87 GMC Vandura with the 4.3L V-6 in it. We are wondering what the recommended spark plug gap is supposed to be. Thanks.

It's either 45 or 60, and I'd bet on 45.

Thanks for the help guys. Since this thing doesn't have an HEI distributor, .040-.045 does sound about right.
