Default What spark plugs?

I have searched, however I cant find anything that really helps. I have a 1995 Softail springer with the following mods: Alan Johnson heads, Mikuni carb, Dyna 2000 digital ignition, Dyna 2000 coil, full exhaust. The bike came with all these parts. Everyone also says my bike sounds like it has a cam. (it whines like a supercharger at idle, and when you let off and slow to a stop. I have had no problems with it, however last night it was running aweful, and when I got home the front plug was very black, with a lot of carbon that was easily wiped off with a paper towel. The rear looked much better, almost text book perfect. I run premium fuel, and have often wondered if I need something better, but it runs great, and does not "ping" The plugs in it are stock range, however they are Autolights, WHAT PLUGS DO YOU RECOMMEND I PUT IN IT??????? AND FUEL?????????? Thanks. Luke
