I prefer NGK TR 55 plugs and Accell 9000 wires. The wires are good for headers, and the plugs are gapped at 55 for me.

I like the NGK Iriduim TR 55's and Taylor wires. We have 8mm on the T/A and the SSS, and the Thunder Volt wires on the Camaro SS.

I just took out my NGK TR55IX plugs for my header install. After 13k the gap was huge. Still seemed to work OK. But I just put TR55 coper plugs back. As for wires, MSD's.
