Think plugs are good for 100k miles, I only changed mine being I put a supercharger on the car and had to go to a cooler heat range.

The more power you add the more often they should be changed. You'll be fine with them at 20k and a set of headers but these LT motors build a up a ton of carbon. Might just be worth it.
