There's huge threads on here about plugs, common consensus as I recall (and my own experience) is that plat's suck in these trucks. Mine never did idle right with them. Threw in some copper....uh....plugs (don't remember the brand) and all was well. They're easy to change in this truck, long life isn't of concern to me. As for wires, proper routing goes a LONG way, and i don't like belden ignition wires.

I put the 3923's in my sister's dakota and I love them, she also gained about 1.5mpg with them too. As far as wires go, these are great economy wires:

I run Champion plugs MSD 8.5mm wires, Napa Dist. cap and rotor. I'm happy with this setup.
