Hmm! Like the old hemi the spark plug are located next to the intake
manifold. They have coil over plug. As far as the space concern, plenty to
work with. I agree with the air hat concern-BUTT UGLY. A TB intake tube
may look a lot better than the plastic.

Subject: DML: Semi Hemi but totally ugly was:4.7l spark plug install
& 3923 questions
I stopped at the dealer today and checked out the 4.7L.
Where the h#!! are the plugs? No offense,..oh maybe a little....
The engine looked like a ferd powerstroke, butt ugly and
no room. I'm glad its a good fast engine, otherwise I'd
feel sorry for you 4.7 guys. I hope Mopar or someone will
make some chrome valve covers for this engine soon. Mean
while, please keep the hood shut on those things. Thank you!
;p (ducking and running)!

P.S. I'd rather have burnt knuckles!
