Hello;

I've got an L98 with Hooker 2460 shorty headers on it. My problem is that I can't seem to find a socket that will fit onto the spark plugs and still get behind the headers! Do I actually have to take my headers off to change the plugs or is there a special tool i can get?


Thanks, Kyle

 

Yeah,

They are called boxed end wrenches.

Use either straight or offset ones :-)

Or buy cheapie spark plug socket and cut it down and use a 3/4 wrench on it to take the plugs out.

Whatever works, plugs and headers on our cars suck period, no ifs ands or buts lol

What he said..... umm yeah.. lol

All I did was take a 1/2 drive, 16mm short socket and ground down two flat spots on it so a 3/4" open end will fit on it.

You'll need it on 4,5, and 7.

 

regular spark plug socket cut in half and a 3/4 gear wrench work wonders . you will also need this on #6as much as if not more so than #5.

 

Okay, thanks guys, I guess I didn't really take a hard look at it.
