modifed tools

Hey guys, i don't know if its been covered, but i thought i throw in this thread, im reading people having a hard time replacing spark plug on our v8...

what i did to go around that issue was to get 3 spark plug socket, and shave different length out of them, in some case, just shaving 1/8 of inches from them made a world of difference.
make sure you get the socket that you can hook a wrench too it.

did you guys modified more tools to work on our projects?

Eric

Re: modifed tools

ive ground down wrenches to help tighten header bolts. ive also bent wrenches and socket extentions with a torch for various projects. the right tool makes also the difference, and in some cases they dont sell it, so you have to make it...
