Plugs are easy on the DOHC (even easier than the SOHC). Remove the coil cover, pull the COP off, and remove the plug. You'll need socket extensions as the plug wells are deep, but chging plugs on these mod motors is much easier than with the older cam in block motors. Since these are aluminum heads, you should dab a bit of anti-seize on the threads of each plug. (Pick this up at any auto parts store). Also of note - the DOHC COPs are not held in by a 7mm bolt like the SOHC COPs are. Finally, you should blow out the plug well with compressed air (buy a can of it if you don't have a compressor) after removing the COP and before removing the plug. And DO NOT overtighten the plugs. There have been many debates about using a torque wrench for these, but I (and many others) have never had an issue with turning it finger tight then cinching it down with a little twist, using minimal force.
The Mach 1 engine has COPs - Coil On Plug technology - a single coil for each plug. There is no distributor, no plug wires...it's very basic. It uses 8 spark plugs.
Chging the fuel filter is very easy as well. As mentioned above, you do need a special tool, but it's pretty inexpensive. The first time you chg it, it will take you probably an hour...the 2nd time, it'll be more like 10-15 mins.
You should really consider doing these basic maintenance tasks yourself - save money and learn a little about your hot rod. A good resource for the fuel filter change (and the plug change, although this webpage deals with a SOHC...just realize that you have to remove your COP covers (2 small bolts) to gain access to the COPs) is
