Should I change my plug gap from the stock setting of .7-.8 mm?
In the process of installing them as we speak. Yep, I got an old PC installed in the garage so this site is only an arms reach away!

I didn't make it to the coils tonight. When I ordered my coils I got a cam cover gasket and tach seal. Well, lets just say the gasket was so crispy that I actually drew blood as it plunged beneath my fingernail. So, I had to take the cams out to get all the gasket out and the bits that broke off. Anyway, I'll tackle the coils tomorrow afternoon.

You'll need to put ring terminals on the primary(small wires) side of the new coils as the Kawasaki ones had 1/4" push on terminals.

Larger gap gives you better efficiency and a bit more power.

From the looks of your link you sent me, you prefer the accel plugs anyway, correct?
Also, would there be really any noticeable benefit to getting the accell plugs for my 550, which has stock coils and ignition?
