what oil and spark plugs for my 05 5.4?

I need to do a oil change and minor tune up before I go to school tomorrow. I am going to be in Boone NC up in the Mountains. I also want to attempt to put in plugs along with my car quest blue brakes and KN drop in filter

For oil, I use only the Ford recommended oil, 5-20 Motorcraft. On plugs, are you aware of the deal with the plugs in that engine? If not, do a search and read the TSB on removal.

How many miles on it? Changing spark plugs is not a no-brainer on these.
