proper torque... My 01 never had issues with plugs because I know how to do proper maintenance.Pay special attention to this note in the FAQ:
"99 to late 02 have 3-4 threads in the cylinder heads for the spark plugs, 02+ have 8-9 threads and are less prone to spark plug blow out."
My '02 came with the 4-thread heads and spit out a spark plug, which ended up being a costly repair. So I personally would recommend a newer model year with the 8-thread heads, so you don't have to worry about it. Otherwise, check your spark plug tightness regularly.
And make plug changes on a COLD engine. Owned mine 12 yrs and not a spit plug yet on my 99.proper torque... My 01 never had issues with plugs because I know how to do proper maintenance.
