not sure on either of the two, if you buy spark plugs made for your car they should be pre-gapped to stock specs.

15.4 gallons, and spark plugs NEVER are gapped correctly, so never just put them in. I am not sure of the propper gap, I would go talk to the guys at www.foureyedpride.com, they are the best source, and tell them what plug you will be using

When you buy the plugs the parts store should have the gap in the computer. A quick check to oreillyautoparts.com says the gap is .054. Same as my 97.
