Can't get access to plugs 6 & 8 with Jethot headers
As you can see here from the pic the dipstick tube is blocking access but even if I remove it I don't think I'll be able to squeeze my hands in there. I need to get in there to reduce the plug gaps on #6 & 8. IIRC I put the plugs in before the headers. Thoughts?

#6 is accessed through the gap in the primaries...Ratchet, extension, norm spark plug socket...#8 shorty socket and a wrench....or drop the starter and do it from the bottom.
if you havent all ready, make you a short spark plug socket...take a normal one...cut the end off to where it will still have enough left to grab the plug...then drill the drive attachment out so the plug can stick up through the end...you will then use a wrench to loosen/tighten the plug....this will make your life so much easier...can I say 30min plug changes
but #6 and #8 can be done from the top fairly easy once you figure out how to hold your mouth.

Can't do that. The alternator is in the way.

On my old 3rd gen I had a spark plug socket I rounded the end on Like almost all the way to where the ratchet attatches Sometimes a cheapo socket is needed LoL Think outside the box Droppin the starter doesnt sound too bad LoL A socket cut in half & a ratchet wrench will work too Sometimes layin on top of the motor to twist & bend your arm works if youve got stuff in the way & dont wanna remove em
