NGK plugs are great. I use TR55's in my 5.0L and my LS1 T/A. I have FMS 9mm wires on the 302, and they've served me well. The wires and the plugs shouldn't cost more than around $50 locally. Might cost a few bucks more if you can't find them near you and have to order and ship them.

If it's a fairly stock setup, I'd HIGHLY recommend plain old ford motorcraft plugs, and then for wires, FMS 9mm's.

If it's modded (to the extent you need colder/warmer plugs, then go with whatever your tuner/head manufacturer/cam manufacturer/chip burner recommends.

(heads up. DON"T purchase your FMS wires @ a dealership.......you'll end up paying 70+ dollars for them). (and I work @ a dealership).........

Scummit, or ebay is your cheapest (oops, most inexpensive), bet there.

I agree with using the FMS wires for what ever your setup is.
But buy whatever spark plug you feel comfortable with also. In my car, I use regular autolites and have never had a problem with them.
