Sounds like everyone is taking advantage of their day off! :cheers:
Florida rain got the best of me, so I ended up spending half the day cleaning and organizing the garage. Had to do it sooner or later!

Just drove through 6+ inches of lovely Michigan snow, with summer tires, so I can work 6pm to 6am... I hate working holidays, at least it's holiday pay.

Yah, too OCD not to.
I changed the eight on the driver's side on the afternoon of the 31st; and the eight on the passenger side starting around 10:00am on the 1st. First time for me.
What a job. It takes 3 different ratchets, six or seven or eight assorted extensions, two different U-joints, etc., etc.,.....
They say it costs $200-$300 at the dealer. I can see why. Besides saving the money, I got to see each set of plugs for each cylinder.
Back in the '70s, I had a '70 Mach 1 with a 351 Cleveland. They say, on the '68, '69, and '70 Mustangs with any engine over a 390, you had to undo the front motor mounts and jack the engine up to get at the plugs. Boy, those design engineers.
Hope everyone has a Happy New Year!
