Spark plugs
Alright, I searched but came up with nothing (I'm not proficient in searching). So the situation is, I'm getting ready to do a tune up on ye ole Stang (00 GT) and since I'm doing it in the car hobby shot on base, it charges by the hour so I was curious if there are any tricky ones to get out? Just for reference, I have long tube headers and strut tower brace so keep that in mind. Also, I was planning on getting the e3's, think it would be benificial even though I have little mods? Thanks in advance

It should be that bad, I would assume the rear ones are the PITA. I would have some swival sockets. Make sure you torque them correctly I really believe that why so many people have problems with the spark plugs blowing out do to the lack of threads.

Which base you at? NAS Jax? Mayport? I'm at Kings Bay Sub Base...and don't buy the platinums or anything like that. Coppertop stockies are the best bang for your buck. especially if you plan on going supercharged anytime soon.
