Default Plugs and Wires. Which ones?

Can you guys help/show/tell me what are the best plugs and wires to get and where to get them? People told me it would probably be a good idea to upgrade. I'm getting my cam installed saturday. Thanks for any help!

I believe they're MSD wires and NGK plugs. Contact 99blancoss, he has the best price.

NGK Plugs for me, Was an idiot and went with the impulse buy for cool appearance and bought the Blue vision motorsports wires off of ebay, I just measured the resistance with my vom on all of them, set on 2k range setting,they ranged from .3xx - .4xx, to the most common .5xx : Correct me if i'm wrong but 2k ohm x .300 =600 Ohms, 2k x .500 = 1K ohm, meaning these wires range from 600 ohms at best to 1,000 ohms of resistance per foot (.512) which was the most common, these wires are slightly less than a foot long......so needless to say I am going with MSD superconductors to compliment my NGK plugs and MSD blaster coils. sorry for the book but For reference stock wires are around 500-600ohms resistance/foot and msd superconductors are advertised at about 40ohms/foot resistance.

MSD has the lowest resistance per foot of any helicoil type wire

MSD wires and NGK plugs are probably the most popular combo on this board. It's what I use and I have no complaints.
