Hi there
I have a set of spark plug sockets that have a notch cut out of one of the sides, they are for headers, but are great for these cars. The slot allows you to slip the socket over the spark plug at a angle instead of straight on. They are also cut down so they are short in length.
I then use a flex head ratcheting ratchet and it makes life soooooo much better. Let me know if you would like
to know about these.

How are the plugs numbered again?
7 8
5 6
3 4
1 2
Like that looking from the front of the car? I cant get to what I think is 5 and 6. I have pace LTs and I cant even get the wires off..theres absolutely no room to reach there?

The starter isn't in the way of plug #7. You've got plug #7 confused with plug #8. Also, I changed out #8 from below without removing the starter, or anything actually.

i did both in like an hour my first time before i had my delteq and headers, i dont have the slp special stocket, and ive been working out every day for years so my arms arent small by any means, i found the hardest part was getting the wires into the metal guides, you can get most of them from the bottom.
p.s taking the starter out shouldnt take more then 5 minutes
