Aren't the 764's Autolites? Same thing, anyway I'll try .035 as I'm only a little over 16psi. - One thing I have noticed is a slight orange color on the plugs (it's always been like that.) I blew a head gasket about 6 months ago, had the head magnafluxed & rebuilt. Put in a Ranger roller cam and a 1035 head gasket....still orange.

I pulled the plugs & they are at .032 & no longer orange. I was probably thinking .042 from Maggie's LX...Duh.
