[QUOTE="4play, post: 2135216, member: 7223"] The tougher dodge truck engine to do plugs on is the 4.7 V8 not the 5.7 Hemi, 4.7 has 16 plugs too, the uppers should be copper, lowers should be plats. Both engines are not real difficult to do but the Hemi is easier and less time consuming. Dealers can be pricey on some stuff and if their quote is around $500 just for plugs or anywhere near that that, I would simply go somewhere else. I read a mention about the 5.4 Fords, its the 3V engine that likes to break the plugs off. There are a few tricks to try to prevent this but sometimes it just happens. I have done many of these engines and usually at least one breaks, worst one I did all 8 broke, if you're lucky none or just a couple break. [/QUOTE]
