You want to stick with copper over platinum, copper is a better conductor of electricity.

Autolite 25s gapped to the Factory Gap of .054" will work great!

Agreed!

The 5.0's do just fine with stock plugs even a pretty slightly modded 5.0 does best with stock style plugs.

My engine is 100% stock but for MDS Blaster coil, 9MM Ford Racing Wires and BBK CAI and I run NGK "V-Power"
So far 12,000 miles and the still look brand new.
