I have to use a wobble extension on the m3. I have to take off some plastic bits from the firewall on the 330. The rv I can reach in from teh side of the wheel and do it without opening anything ;)

The spark plugs seriously are not hard at all dude. I bet it takes you only an hour if that.
I wound up not having a COP harness seated properly, and it fired a code off immediately. Maybe it was a fluke?

I will probably do them tomorrow after work. I drove the mustang today, so i'll let it sit till im done work tomorrow and tackle it. Only thing I'm worried about is the horror stories I've read regarding only having 3 threads on the 2v engines.

Pull the wires the night before and fill the plug holes with PB blaster. By morning they should turn right out. Just be sure to use consistant pressure and not be jerky.

I love that people are saying my mustang is a sleeper. Come on, it's a GT, what's sleeperish about it?

Just ordered a new set of plug boots for the car too. I figured it would be easier to replace them while i'm doing the plugs instead of waiting till they're done to see if that fixes the problem.

I found a gauge pod that is exactly what I wanted. Trying to keep everything out of plain site/view, whatever the say.

A look everyone goes with. Staggered Bullits. I'm one of the few that still runs stock bullits which I guess is why mine looks sleeperish on a stock tire size drag radial.

Finishing packing tonight. Took the day off tomorrow and my friend is helping me move.

Hopefully things go smooth and maybe I can throw something in the smoker.
