I was looking at plugs on Rock Auto and it showed a few with different preset gaps, thought I would have found this info on this label but that's a no go.

I have a gap gauge tool to make sure of the correct spec but I don't know what the spec should be?

Thanks for the help!

Yeah I was reading on some of the past posts on here. Probably go with the Denso plugs.
