Re: type of spark plugs?
WOW .035 gap??? Maybe for a S/C car, but thats way to small for a your set up.
Motorcraft plugs work fine, but I still prefer Autolite #24's. Stock gap is .054, so that's where I would gap them to.

Re: type of spark plugs?
Either or, I like 24's cause they run a little colder and richer, but 25's are stock.
