Subject says it all...bloody annoying!
It's been about 6 years since I had a "reputable" workshop carry out the ls3 conversion in my vx and after changing the spark plugs over the weekend I found they have forced in two spark plugs, one in each head. The spark plugs seemed to have dodgy threads and it's pretty obvious when you try screw them in.
The new plugs do still screw with a wrench with a little extra effort however they dont seem to get to that tight point. As these are Higgins porter heads I a hoping they can be fixed without helicoil. Any advice would be much appreciated
