How much spark plug gap have you used with the MSD6AL with sucess in a 9 to 9.5 compression motor?
 
I have gapped the plugs as far as .060, but power fell off on a 8.5-1 engine.
Good results have been found through trial and error. Best result I have found is right around .045. At .050, it should be considered pushing it as far as runing well for max mileage and power. This for both the stocker and performance 360's. (8.5-1 & 11-1 engines)
 
I run my 9:1 CR 318 with a MSD 6AL box and MSD billet dist at .040 gap.....I used to run .045 but with the nitrous I dropped it back to .040 and I fell it runs better N/A with the .040 gap.
