Default Should I Do Maintinance At 50k?

Well I have my motor and tranny out of the car. I was thinking i should replace the plugs and wires and stuff since its out knowing its a PITA when its in the car. The car has 50k on it now. Should do the plugs and wires i know the factory's should be good for 100k, and is there any other maintnance stuff i should do while its out? Thanx Ben

good for 100K? Don't count on it. Change the spark plugs with a quality replacement.

Just do it man. Hell, I just did mine like 3 months ago, and if I had my motor out right now, I'd go ahead and do them again. Tr55's are cheap enough to where even though mine only have a couple thousand miles on them, I'd replace them again since it would only take like 20 minutes.
