Regarding plugs, if you search this forum you'll find lots of advice that can be summarized to...
- WDC7 Plugs unless you need WDC6.
- No R in the plugs, unless it says "R0"; you do not want resistor plugs.
- No fancy metals, just basic copper plugs. Not platinum, iridium, fancy forks or anything else.
- There is a spec published for total resistance of the wire and the boots. Check it to know if your wires are any good. A look at the scope pattern at 4,500 and idle is also a good idea.
- The timing would be set at 4,500 rpm, plugging vacuum lines to the distributor and then checked at various RPMs. Also check the dwell at various speeds to ensure that it doesn't change more than like 2 or 3 degrees from idle to that high rpm.

PS. Get the ignition to spec before worrying too much about the carbs. When you deal with the carbs, the book says you want more than half a tank of gas in there. Make sure your tank strainer is clean.
