Autolite 3923s are a good choice for spark plugs. Any cap and rotor will be good as long as it has brass tips. MSD 8.5 mm, MSD Streetfire 8.0mm(cheaper than 8.5s), and Taylor 8.2s are all good choices. If you ever plan to get a performance coil, stay away from ACCEL coils, as they fail often.

I have seen quite a few threads where the accel coils failed. I had one and didn't think much about. Truck quit at the edge of town one day and I still had the old coil laying behind of the seat so I put it on and all was well again. The accel did last almost two years though.

I've always heard to stay away from the Accel coils too but don't remember many threads first hand where they failed.
As for plugs I didn't like the Autolites when I tried them either. The Champions run much better in my truck as well as many others. I switched back to Champions after a month or two.
For wires I like the MSD ones and that's what I run but OEM would be fine too or most as long as you get a quality set.
For the cap and rotor I run NAPA ones but any with brass terminals on the cap should be okay.
For the coil I'd stick with OEM or MSD but I honestly don't see why you really need to change that unless it's bad.
