My Motorcraft ASWFA12C plugs came in finally, and I want to replace mine tomorrow when I have the plenum off being polished.

My question is, when I am running a V2SQ at 9psi, what gap should I set my plugs at? Is .35 still the standard on a supercharged application?

Also, how do you get the COP off our cars? The shop that installed my blower did my plugs before. Are there any tricks to doing the plugs on a 2000 GT? Do the fuel injectors need to come out at all to gain access? I looked at my engine and it looks tight.

Any suggestions on tricks and the gap for my plugs would be greatly appreciated.

disconnect the wire fron the tube going down to each spark plug. then remove the bolt and do it that way. if u leave the wires connected u will have a hard time getting them out.
