[QUOTE="bigwave, post: 15302417, member: 179097"] New to the 03 cobra world, I just changed plugs on an 03 cobra we just bought, it has the 3rd gen heads on it, from what I've read it has the heat and valve guide issue addressed but still has the 4 thread plug holes. I did put high heat anti-seize on them and torqued to 11-ft-lb as specified, read somewhere. Being a jeep guy and working on them all the time, it's not easy to leave a plug at 11-ft-lb and feel it's tight enough, but, I did. And now hoping I didn't over do it at 11. The car has 38k miles on it and still had the factory 13 year old plugs in it. They came out pretty easy and all tightened up just fine. I'm now wondering if I should pop the covers and check them all now that it's been a few hundred miles ago. [/QUOTE]
