Spark plug suggestions for E85 and 30psi

Just tryin to get ready for my E85 tune here in a few days and was wondering what plugs I should run..... Its a 2003 Evo 8, FULL, FULL bolt ons, 272/280 cams, IX turbo, blah blah blah. On 91 pump at 24 psi its doin 370whp with approx. matching torque (dynojet), and figure the boost and E85 should add another 50+whp/trq. So what does everyone think? Im thinkin I should run a copper 8 heat range plug, but not sure which one, and the gap...... Any suggestions would help, thanks

One is a protruding tip and one is not.

Go with the BR8ES.
