Arrow 5.3 150-250... plugs?

Hey guys im almost aready to fire this thing up and get it on the dyno! The plan is to spray a 150-250 depending on how it responds. The car has a full standalone in it, which i plan to use c16. heres a rundown of the motor..

SBE 5.3 fresh rings/bearings
hv oil pump
cts-v pan
completey rebuilt 862 heads, cut .030''
Comp 918 beehive valve springs
ASA Camshaft 525/525 226/236@50 110 lobe sep
Head studs.
ls9 headgaskets
Edelbrock Vic Jr intake
msd 6010
Mighty Demon 750 4150
dynatech 1 7/8 longtubes
JW built th400 T brake,
revmax 3600 custom billet convertor

The plate im using is an older plate but its good to flow up to 300. Its a Nitrous Works plate with the large style solenoids. What is a good plug to start the nitrous tuning. Ive read to use a non-projected tip plug (br6ef) but ive also seen alot of people use the projected tip (tr6)?

This is a street car that will see alot of driving on the weekends. Also this a strictly pump gas 93 car and the nitrous will be using the c16 from the stand alone. What kind of limits should i be looking at and what have people used from experience on these motors??? Sorry this is my first LS motor, so im trying to learn from other people mistakes.

NGK Br8ef, better to have a non projected tip with nitrous.
