It depends on what you want to spend. There is a plug called the Silverstone from Nology Engineering that have solid silver cores. (Silver is one of the best head conductors) They are about $10 apiece. If you don't want to go that route, then just buy a reliable-brand, cool running plug with a single (normal) electrode. Depending on how your N2O is jetted, it may help to radius the tip of the electrode. Hope this helps.

I use delco fr3ls plugs. I am wondering if there is a better plug also. Mine work fine though.

Cobrakiller, If you're still using stock heads I would use AC Delco R42t plugs.

Gofaster, If you ever need or want to try a colder plug but can't find fr2ls or fr1ls you can usually find their autolite equivalents 3923, and 3922.
