So thanks to you folks here , I got my new plugs and wires . Next question is basically just a confirmation that I am doing it correctly .
I will check gap on plugs to ensure they are at .040 .
I will apply some anti-seize to the plug threads as they are threading into an aluminum head and don't want dissimilar metals issues .
I will put some dielectric grease on the plug contact and a little on the boot .
I purchased the OEM metal jacket heat shields . (do they make it difficult to remove the wires from the plugs or will they allow the boot to twist a little ?)
I purchased OEM wires so I'm assuming there will be no issue replacing them .

Let me know if I am doing anything wrong , thanks !!

fyi stock L99 powerplant .
