RE: spark plugs
No, you don't have to change the gap if you don't want to.
Running a bigger gap gives you a bigger spark but it's harder on all the ignition components.
I personally think once you get past .040 there isn't anything to be gained on a stock motor but others will argue.

Okay, so the factory gap is .040, which is where I have my 3923's set right now. I'm going to get that MSD coil (8228), so will I need to change the gap on my plugs?
I will be running the Jeg's 8mm wires, Jeg's dist cap & rotor, and the MSD coil with the 3923's.
