Spark Plugs
Spark Plugs I just wanted to let everyone know that thinks spark plugs are a bitch with headers you are sadly mistaken. #8 (Passenger Side, Rear) was extremely easy to get from the bottom. What i had to do it was a spark plug Socket that was able to be turned by a wrench and that is how i had to losen it and tighten it. The socket came with my craftsman kit. We didn't need much room to do it; we just had it on some rhino ramps.
#6 was just as easy from the top.
I will say though, if you are a big guy with fat little arms you will not be able to do these plugs.
This took me, Redocmach1, Bluestrat, and Chris 203 45 min to do plugs.
Just thought i would shead a little information for the searchers!

I can do mine in 25 minutes from the top, that includes checking the gap and putting on a bit of anti-seize, R&R of the passenger coil pack as well.
Thanks for the heads up though, any information on how people do things differently is appreciated.

I do them in 25-30 minutes too. 1-7 from the top and number 8 from under the car. I use a flex head 3/8 inch drive ratchet with either a 1 inch or 3 inch extention and sprak plug socket depending on the particular plug on 1-7...For number 8 I use a 1/4 inch drive with a 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch adapter for my 3/8 spark plug socket from under the car. I change them every 15,000 miles and the car has 172,000 + miles on it so I have had some practice... I use NKG TR6 plugs gapped at .055 with dielectric grease and antiseize.
Took me less than 10 mins to do them with the headers off. On Dakota's car I had the driver's side done in about 10 minutes too, just the passenger side that's a bitch to get at. And Jordan, I want a piece of your car too. Garrett says that my car reminds him of yours and we have pretty similar mods. 
...could have probably cut some time that off if I didn't have a beer in one hand.
