You might have to jack up your Engine. Get some new plugs in while you are there. Nothing is required..just how dirty do you want to get, and how much swearing can you do.
Maybe some Medical Tape cause you will be busting your knuckles..

Required? A lot of patience.lol

I got the slp spark plug socket and a 3/8-7/16 combo craftman closed end style wrench, the handle is really thin and fits in well and takes care of both standard sized header bolts. Seems to help alot with header bolts and spark plug removal.
