LS1 Plugs:
This is a friggin B!@tch!! LOL!! Even the driver side was giving me trouble, the previous plugs were undoubtably torqued more than they were supposed to be. But to tell you one thing, I was completely suprised of the condition they were in, they weren't all that bad for the near 40,000 miles they were in. I'll post pics of the plugs and me dumb ass kneeling on the intake manifold haha...What a joyous day...

The time frame that installuniversity said wasn't too far off either, they said 45 minutes - 8 hours... Well considering it took me about 2 hours to figure out what tools made the best combo in each position, it's taking pretty long.

So far I do recommend one thing, start with the driver side first, as it does build confidence being the easier side...And you get the jist of getting the bastards out of there..

Talk to you all in a little bit after I finish the Passenger side up, (JOY)
