Does he know the Fantastic 4 by any chance?

I'd bet money he DIDN'T do those wires in 20 minutes.

Maybe he did. He might have some sort of tool to make the job easier.

Hey just so you know....tools will make this job 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0x easier.
Like some other people said, go to sears and get a swivel socket attachment. Also get one or two extensions. A spark plug socket can be used on most of the plugs. If you cant get that on there(only one of mine, #6 will not let me use a spark plug socket) then get a wrench and shave it down...or go to slp and buy this tool.

Oh yea, I dont have stock manifolds, I have shorties....so its gonna be different for me. I got plugs 2 and 4 from the top, and 6 and 8 from the bottom.

Good luck, and if you dont have any mechanics gloves, get some dude.

Awesome! thanks for the kick *** replys guys/gals. I'll probably be tackling these plugs pretty soon again. Riding around with 4 drivers side new plugs and 4 passenger side old ones seems pretty bad. While im at it, hopefully i'll replace the wires too.

We shall see!
