Default Tune Up

I'm doing a tune up on my son's 96 Dakota tomorrow and was wondering what plugs are best for the older models. Will just the old Champions be best or what do you guys recommend?

Autolite 3923. Cheap, available everywhere. This heat range is best for the Magnum engines.

wouldnt put anything but factory plugs in it. just my opinion. seen too many dodges come in the shop with spark probs and find junk plugs in it. had a guy bring one and swore up and down would never run champions. his truck ran like crap and couldnt understand why.
so i put some factory spec plugs in it and fired it up. lets just say he'll be running champions from here on out.
