It is. The spark plugs are vertical and on the top side of the head with a coil on each plug. They come loose but the coil holds them in place. They vibrate in the hole till the threads are gone. $150 for the jig to drill them out in place and install a thread insert.

It was my first attempt at a Louie. I'm working on picking subject matter.

Good evening! Just got back from taking the boys for burgers and wings. Is the gross thread finished? I had to quit looking.

No. They shot the whole town down for the event. No designated spots. No picknic benches. Pick a spot on the ground and pitch a tent. Got 4 squares of indoor/outdoor carpet for the tent. Parkfield is a small town. Like 20 people.

I'm thinking Al wants a second opinion from the 8 dollar guy before Marcus makes a move.
