Spark plug gap, wire length problem

Ok, here's my issue, I have an 85 camaro with a carbureted 350 engine... ok, most of you understand my point already, lol. Since Camaro never made stock 350 carbureted engines, i can't find the proper gap that should be given for a 350 engine's plugs. 350 Spark plugs that are used are R45ts. carbed 305's need 0.045 inches according to books while 305 and 350 TPI use 0.035 inches. Should i just adjust for 0.045 inches or what? lol, i just hope buddy who sold me the car didn't lie t be about being a 350 and not a 305.

.045 should be just fine.
