Default Plugs and wires?

I'm looking to get new plugs and wires for my 95 GT, I was wondering what people recomend? Since I am doing plugs and wires I might as well do a cap, rotor and a coil. What is everyones recomendation on that too?

I use Autolite Coppers, Ford 9mm wires, and an Accel cap & rotor which has all brass terminals.

Autolite 3923's for the S-trim to fit the TFS TW heads (3924's recommended otherwise).
Taylor spiral core wires on my last 3 motors, and VERY satisfied with them...

Autolite 39xx's are 3/4" reach plugs. Just remove the 39 for the equivalent for stock plugs.

I've got the following at the moment:

plugs: Autolite 24
wires: Moroso SuperMax 11mm
cap & rotor: purchased from Performance Distributors.
coil: MSD TFI Blaster

If you're on stock ignition with factory headers, you can get by with just about any wire you want. I'd go for the Ford Motorsport wires. I'm about to get Taylor 409s cause the boots on the Moroso's are too big and are gonna end up fried like the last 3 sets of wires I've had.

Do you know what way the Autolite numbers run? Are the 24's hotter or colder than say a 26 plug?

24 is colder than 26 in Autolites.
