the 04 5.7s in my 65 coronet and 68 cuda would be 2o min each tops.besides if you already have it done yourself you saved money right?

My kid changed the plugs in his 04 Ram in about an hour.I hope you used a dab of antisieze on the threads and some dielectric grease on the boots.Rocky

They're not as bad as it looks, it takes me about 30-45min if I gap them first, they're all pretty straight forward except the ones near the brake booster, on those I stack a few short extensions in the hole and pull them out 1 by 1.

put on a lift, remove plastic inner fenders and stand up to do it, it's much easier on the back. I can do all 16 in under an hour this way start to finish.

that plug wires mess is a whole nudder story in itself
