What Plug Gap Is Best For Me?????

355, 9:5:1, HSR, 170cc pro-torkers/67cc chambers, XE-268/112LSA, stock dizzy with MSD coil/wires and Accell shorty plugs gapped to factory 0.035" specs. Now the plugs look like there burning pretty good but I have wondered since I built the motor if going to a different plug gap would help at all. Any input? Thanks

Stock gap is fine.
