I did mine at .55 with NGK-IX Iridium spark plugs and the Red GM Z06 or LS6 Wires.
But i know it says .60 for stock but alot of people go between .50 - .60 depending on preference i guess but i just went with what my friends that have LS-1's set theirs since they said it worked good

Yeah, I got the service manuals for 2001 recently and they indicate the gap at .060 for the 5.7L. Not sure what it is for the V6, but who cares.
