Same as an old points fired Dodge 318 V8. Plug gap .033-.038. Snug plus 1/4-1/2 turn.
In other words, open the box and screw the plug in, go for a ride, close to 85% of the time.
Use some sort of compressed air (even the canned stuff for computer keyboards is alright) to clean the plug well before removing the old plug. I've found gravel in both Savage plug wells, and both bikes still have the plug side head cover trim.
Oh, FYI, don't even THINK about pulling a warm sparkplug. You'll pull the threads out of whack in the head. Pretty sure our engine is primitive enough that it does NOT have a steel insert set into the mold before the head is cast.
