Probably .044 " .. I think on the IKs you do better to gap them down ~.032-.033"

Default Yes with the gap at .040+ (as delivered they were a bit random but all over .040") the engine would
misfire once cylinder pressure rose to max boost levels. I suspect the flame front was 'blowing out'. Gapping them down removed that issue.
