I think the NGK TR55's seem to be the popular choice for a car that isn't FI. That's what I'm running and I did the swap the same time as the headers and they seem to work fine.

Almost everyone runs NGK tr-55's I would definetly get some tr-55's if I were you...

Also I have some MSD wires for sale if you want them... They don't fit with my new heads... (they have about 2K miles on them)

I also have some used NGK TR-55's (also 2K miles) if you want them for free with the wires they are all yours

Here is what I got:

MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor Spark Plug Wires, 1998-2002 LS1 F-Body, 1997-2006 Corvette, 2004-2006 GTO, 2004-2006 CTS-V - Red

The MSD 8.5mm Super Conductor Wire is "the" performance wire. Engineered from the inside out, the 8.5 offers everything you have everwanted in a wire; incredibly low resistance without electronic interference! In a single 12 inch length of Super Conductor Wire there is only 40 - 50 ohms of resistance! That is the lowest resistance of any helically wound wire.

NGK TR55 Spark Plugs, Stock heat range, gapped at .050

I paid about 95 bucks for everything shipped.
