Spark Plugs and full MSD Ignition system

I have a 1982 Camaro with a strong 350 chevy MSD Ignition. What are the best plugs that I can use with my MSD System. I am using platinum but I am taking them out because the plating chips away with the MSD. What plugs are recommended for this ignition. The Heads I am using are the GM Performance Parts Drilled and Tapped Vortec Heads. I am also using headers, for info on engine and the below link. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regular AC Delco should be fine.

Hey, you got any pics of your hood ? I just ordered the 2.5 . Did you have to do much trimming? did you use pop rivets or what? any info would be helpful. Thanks
Ron

Yeah I had the same problem with the Platinum plugs using an MSD. IM using AC delco plugs now and they seem to be working fine.

Also, copper actually conducts better than platinum though platinum will last longer.
