That is what I am going to run in my Supercharged engines as well. I have a 142 Thermostat in mine so the engine temps should be comparable as well.

Give me a little more info on the engine. What is the compression, boost, what heads, etc.

I will try ngk # 8 heat range non projected plug and will see if it look too hot or too cold...

I run a B/M 250 with super chiller on a 540 with a single 1050 Dominator,I have the timing locked out at 28. I have had Zero problems with this setup. Engine starts easily and idles smooth. Boost is 6-6 1/2 lbs from 4000-5400 rpm. Carb is also boost referenced at the metering block. Its a simple setup with no worries,I do run 94 octaine fuel that is available here in Canada. I am useing Bosch HR 9 spark plugs gapped at .035. Plugs are spot on for heat range. Not an extended tip. Compression ratio of 8.1 with steel heads.
