Hi all
Do I need to adjust the gaps on my plugs when installing electronic ignition kit + upgraded ignition coil?

Thanks
Eiles

If you're going for maximum gap, don't forget to index them.

You put shims under each plug so the electrodes all point the same in the chamber. It's a V8 thing, not sure it makes a difference in an A series with siamesed ports.
