Yep cracked many plugs by dropping them, hitting them with the header etc. They break very easy!

I still have the stock manifolds and i unhooked the AIR tube to get my hand back there better. It deffinatly gunna be a pain in the *** haha. I'll prolly get to it tomorrow
I put the car on the lift, little lower than normal then snake my arm up in there. That plug just sucks *** to change.

Yeah that was me. And thanks. I saw your car too because I don't see many around here with the same hood as us. It never struck me as being you though. What were you doing driving out that way?

And I've seen one other SOM SS exactly like mine, same exhaust tips, t-tops, everything. But it had the ZR1 rims that we got at home. Pretty neat though.
