Plugs aren't that bad. Hell I swapped plugs and compression tested the car at the same time in under an hour.
I'd do 5 Subaru plug changes before I'd want to do an lt1 f body.


Head gaskets, now that's another story lol

why there actually really easy. 1 big belt. hardest part is getting the harmonic bolt off. unless you feel like ripping half the nose off to get an impact in there i used the cheater bar and starter routine.... hahahaha

Pulling those motors isnt all that hard tho. Also head gaskets i believe can be done by propping the motor up by putting a socket in between the motormount and motor
