"This is the genuine oem iridium spark plug set to suit the BA Mk2 Falcon with 4.0 Turbo motor including FPV models

SK20R11 spark plugs come pre-gapped to 1.1mm and are a cold range high resistance plug to suit the Turbo motor"

Please send us your VIN to confirm application if unsure as there are so many plug variations it is VIN specific

arronm, ask them yourself mate.
Probably not but not good practice eh.
As quoted from the ngk blurb posted by Maka,
Even if the preset Gap matches that required by your engine, it is always good practice to physically check the Gap as it may have shifted during transportation (not all spark plugs are packaged in a way that protects the firing end ).

and as for your link and they ask for the vin #, should also be asking is your motor still as per OE or if modded please advise imo. Very open advertising.
