Installed new plugs and wires

**1999slpss** · 03-29-2011, 09:33 PM

Finally got around to putting in NGK tr5 plugs and msd wires! I must say I would rather change plugs on 100 LS1's than 1 LT1, I only got PO'd once with #8 plug wire. I've only had this car for 6 months and I wish I would have bought an LS car sooner. That is all. Lol.

lol they arent too bad, do you have headers or stock manifolds still?

**1999slpss** · 03-30-2011, 08:18 AM

headers. that helped too. i do still have my lt1 btw.

Number 8 is not too bad from under the car -- depends on the header layout though. Any other maintenance plans?

I fought with the #6 plug more. #8 was relatively easy for me (from the top). Getting the wire back on #8 was a bitch. I may change the fuel filter, it's been a few years since the last one. Other than that no plans except to drive it and enjoy it!

Yours must like you then. My LT took me twice as long and it has headers as well.

LS1 wasn't any harder than my 99 grand prix. Neither was that bad imo.

just did the drivers side, and needto finish the passenger side. Looked at the passenger side plugs from the top and bottom, and I guess my hands and arms are too big to fit to get to them!

Take the coil packs off. Much easier that way.
