I would plan for a weekend just in case. While 2.5hrs may sound like a lot.... it really isn't by the time you start setting up, hunting for tools, taking off your k&n CAI etc. I mean I know it was time consuming for me becasue on of my screws on the summit cap was pitted so it was very tight while trying to screw it in. I spent probably a solid 45 minutes figuring that one out between trying to put the cap on and off a few times, taking a wire brush to the screw etc... I eventually cleaned the screw up enough and it went in place. I'm just saying plan on doing when you don't have something comming up so if you do run into a road block... you won't feel pressured to rush through it.

They'll be fine till 50k if you wanna wait till you have other parts. Hell I switched mine out at 30k and I didn't even have to. The plugs still looked practically new. If the truck isn't acting up now what diffence you think another 1,500 miles is gonna make?

And deffinelty give yourself time.
