Default Extended tip plugs on blower motor

I have read that extended tip plugs are not recomended on blower motors. I am in the process of installing a B&M 174 on a 461 chev. What plugs are you guys running on your blower motors.

I had Nickerson Performance rework the carb on my blown Formula & Dean recommends NGK plugs & NO extended tips!!
So far, he has been right on with everything he has said or recommended. My .02.

I might be way off but I run a 174 on a 454 magnum with the MR43TS's and have no problems whatsoever. It's got a worked Nikerson Holley too. The original plugs were MR43Ts. I'd run the stock plugs and then pull them, then decide to go cooler if the color is not good. The stock 43 specs have a lot of leeway in their application. I have an MSD and Blaster coil also. You might also consider your boost, the more boost, the better the chance of detonation, hence the cooler plugs. Those 41's - do they faoul up on you on during long no-wakes?
