I've got my girlfriends V8 '92 Camaro RS here and she really needs some new plugs (it has like 140K miles and probably the stock plugs). Anyways, I have a '94 Z28 which I've done the plugs and other things like headers and a cam so how hard is this going to be and what do I need? I have no experience with this engine and the access looks pretty sh_tty like mine is.
Thanks,
Geoff

 

The install isn't going to be bad at all. I did the plug wires in less than an hour myself, and all 8 plugs in less than 2 hours. All and all it shouldn't take up that much time. Save some time and get a set of taylors or any other set that is "pre-made." This will save time and effort. Hope that helps

If you can get under the car it's easyer to change a few of the plugs that way.

 

It sure as hell is. Some of the ones on he drivers side are a little tricky. But you'll get it no problem. They aren't as bad as everyone makes them out to be...

I ended up doing them all from under when I had my manifolds. You can get a few from top, but it was pretty easy from under. If you have a friend to drop the wires down to you as you're under the car you can get those done in like 10 minutes.

 

When I had the carb on my car, it took about 30 minutes or less to change teh plugs and wires.
With my TPI setup, it was about the same.
Carb setup had manifolds and the TPI had headers.
Here are a couple of pics,

Thanks for all the help guys, I'll be giving this a shot probably tomorrow.

If your RS has the same a.i.r. tubes on the exhaust manifolds that the stock TPI cars have, plan on being there a while. I got my plug changes on the IROC (TPI with non-smog headers) down to 45 minutes including jacking time, and it still took me 3 friggin hours to do the plugs on my GTA. Of course, breaking the #5 plug in the hole didn't help.

 

Just got finished and it really wasn't as bad as my LT1 even though this took 2 hours. Those AIR hoses are a PITA!!!
