You guys need better mechanics. I had the alt changed for $125 + beer + the Alt by the guy that works on my race car. To do plugs, I think you need to loosen the motor mount. Again, same guy did it with no problems or complaints. If anyone needs an alternator, I have a remanufactured on still in the box for sale.

Not good oil pan baffles for road racing, though. Engine wouldn't rev over 5500 after going thru the twisty section of track, but never a problem on the highway.
