Reading spark plugs
Photos is #1 plug, 2-8 look very similar. This is a mix of 93 octane pump and 110 Rengade fuel.
How much leaner do you think I can go?
545 w/ TFS heads 12.25:1 CR 30* timing locked out. Thanks for any input!

Re: Reading spark plugs
color looks good for street driving, hard to get a good read on the timing mark.
Re: Reading spark plugs
I agree with Lem, need a better view from the side. From this angle the ground strap looks to be a little on the warm side.
Re: Reading spark plugs
Get a AF meter, the pump gas is almost impossible to read. The driving and Idlin around make it hard too. Make a full pass and shut it off and check them.

Re: Reading spark plugs
Thanks for the advice, I'll leave it as is, A/F monitoring guages seem to be getting more and more popular but I think a TFS Mafia intake is next on the shopping list...

Re: Reading spark plugs
i would guess you are pretty conservative at 30degrees, i would think 34 is more favorable
