Can take a marker (Sharpie) and draw a line down the lengths of their outside porcelain on the opposite side of the gap. If have extra plugs, run them in and snug them so that when are looking at the line you drew, the gap will be facing the piston dome, or close to it as posible. That way the spark will be the least impeded as possible when firing at the fuel mixture. Is a little extreme, but when are searching for HP, every tiny bit adds up. If your plugs use washers, can get extras from many auto parts stores that carry "Dorman" products for about 10 cents a piece. Get a dozen or so. Keep changing them out until find the one that lines up, and just because won't make that plug line up, doesn't mean won't make the next line up, so don't throw them away. Same with tapered/washerless plugs, if doesn't line up in one cylinder, try it in the next, next, next... Mark
