MSD box+iridium plugs

Hi,
before I buy iridium plugs(tr55ix)I decided ask here if someone has experience
how they work together?I know Msd does recommend only copper plugs with ignition boxes(6a&6al),but it would be nice to know if someone has teted this combo.

I was little worried about what MSD tech told at msd forum(iridium plugs goes too hot if used with msd box).So I ordered tr55 plugs.Thanks for reply.
