Just went down this same path a couple of weeks ago when I did the last tuneup; after posting a forum here and talking to my engine builder and others, I ended up with Autolites.

I was running Champions, with no real problems... just thought that I might upgrade to one of the platinum-style plugs. I was steered back to a standard plug.

I also run the MSD 6AL box, but run the plug gaps smaller than the MSD manual calls for. I get a pretty good idle and crisp response on the highway at 0.045" gap... any larger and it seems to stumble a bit at speed.

My compression is about 10:1
