    104s replaced them

    I got worried after I finished up putting in all the plugs, I started it and everything seemed to run fine, then I saw some smoke come from the rear manifolds. I was like ! I thought maybe one of the plug wires was resting on one of the header tubes or something else. I started looking around and couldnt find anything.

    Then I remember when we first installed the headers over a year ago, they smoked cause of the oil on our hands when we were positioning the headers. The heat from the mani's through the header tubes heated up the oils that were on the tubes from me touching them.

    At least that is what I hope it was I checked all the wiring and the upper manifold O2 sensor cable to make sure everything was not touching the manifolds, same goes for the plug wires and the rubber boots.

    I hope that was it

    What? They are no bigger than any other plug...they are just 4 prongs at the tip vs. 1.
