Default Easy Question RE Spark Plugs

Bear with me here....I haven't changed a spark plug since 1984, and that was out of shear necessity (my Dad's '66 Mustang blew a spark plug out of the head and I had to put one in to get home------I don't know why either and I'm not too concerned about it now 'cause we sold it shortly after that :) )

Anyway..........I'm assuming that the #1 and #2 (firing order on the 350 Chev) are going to be the PIA's to replace.......so.....

Does anyone have any hints or tips??? Do I need any special tools, e.g. long extensions, pivoting heads, etc?????

Any advice would be greatly appreciated......Thanks

Try jacking the car up, and going through the wheel well. Sometimes its easier to get at the plugs.
