Will I need to replace the plugs with a 2lb lower? I plan on replacing the plugs soon anyway so I was thinking about doing it now before I add the 2lber. But should I go with the Tr6's or a different plug?
New plugs with a 2lber?

i was running stockers on my fastest pass... but i have TR6's now
With just a 2lb lower the stock plug will be fine. And actually they last a long time. I'd suggest just making sure they are all tight (13ft lbs max) and run them up to 100k miles.
If you do replace them.. try a set of denso IT-20s They are pricey.. but they are smooth as silk.

Will i need to get a bigger MAF? I currently have a C&L 85mm on my '99

is it tuned for the 85??? id honestly just get an 01+ maf and be done with it... alot of the aftermarket ones are a little harder to tune with
It is currently tuned for the 85mm MAF. It was a package from C&L. It came with the 85mm MAF, K&N CAI, and a chip. It was on the truck when i bought it.
shouldnt need to go bigger but id suggest it
The stock plugs are fine for the 2#er. Idle quality is great with the originals.

I run a 2# pulley with the stock motorcrafts, they are fine, although when i changed my plugs for the first time a couple weeks ago the original 70,000mile plugs had a gap around .055 to .070, after the fresh ones at .044 went in I was super happy. Idles great and makes smooth steady power all the way thru the RPM range. unless I go to a 4# i will always run stock plugs.
Pitstain,
Could you tell a difference when you installed teh 2# pulley? or was it not that big of a power jump?

Would tr6's be ok with the 2# pulley? I plan on adding a 4# sometime so i figured I would go ahead and change them to the tr6's which I was at it, but I want to be sure they will work good with the 2#er.
they will work just fine
What should I gap the TR6's at? I will have a 2# pulley on shortly after the spark plugs are installed.
I am also going to be running the same set up what gap on the tr6
