Exclamation GM HEI Ignition Swap - Spark Plug Gap

Anyone know what size gap I should run on my spark plugs after converting to the HEI Module/Coil?

Ive heard the spark is stronger, should I gap them a bit more?

Thank you,

In the interest of community building you should probably post pics.
Where'd you get the idea? That a 3V or 22R?

A rule of thumb is .035” for a points ignition, .045” for an electronic ignition. That works fine.
