I found a pretty good tutorial Here

Secondly: NGK plugs are what's recommended by Dodge. It should say under your hood somewhere, either near the top of the engine bay, towards the front grille, or along the front lip of the hood. It'll tell you the style that it came with and the gap that you should use for stock applications. As for the wires, Crane have been highly recommended by a few people because they've got the lowest resistance. MSD is a close second.

Thirdly: I can't tell you a whole lot about the valve cover gasket. I'll leave that for someone like Gary or someone who knows what they're talking about.

Dont the numbers indacate the heat range, how hot ya want the spark?
as for the wires getting crossed thats not an isue just pull one plug at a time
And make sure the block is cold before ya start, nothing worse than a stripped plug thread.

Valve cover gasket has absolutly nothing to do with changing your plugs are wires(if there isn't a problem with the gasket leave it alone you dont need to change it to change your plugs and wires)

Its pretty straight forward. Pull a plug and wire, put in new plug and wire, repeat 4 times. NKG or champions are good plugs.
