Sharky--you are right about removing the gloves when pulling the coil wires. I didn`t think to do that but great tip. And guys, do you really have to humiliate me by mentioning it took you 2 1/2 hours to my 4 1/2 hour!! AAH the SHAME.........

Congrats. That is a big job to tackle. I was thinking about doing it and have see the write up on Renntech. Did you by chance take pictures along the way? Did you need any special tools? swivel heads, stubbies- that sort of thing?

Anyone else have pics for a step by- step?

It's honestly not THAT bad. The time consuming part is actually removing the parts so that you can gain access to the plugs; a ton of screws, nuts, and bolts.

Alex - when is that show airing? I've set up the PVR to record Pinks so I don't miss it.

Roger did not pull a 'Trainer'..he just purchased the car to drive while his 'Trainer' Mercedes is in the shop...As for the 1967 Camaro, check out the Video...the Coffee machine flew! I never ran Jenny (1967 Camaro) in the quarter before...she surprised me with that number!
