It's something that is often done on the older 5.0 and 351 EFIs. Gapping the plugs allows you to manually clock the timing further than the stock gap.

Hey, who has adjusted their speedometer through the edge? I just went from 245/70R17 to 265/70R17 and wasn't able to fix my speedo. It's reading 1.5mph slower than it should at 60mph. I adjust tire size from 1900mm to 2800mm and couldn't get anything to happen
