Yep, I can practically hand tighten them to that torque spec. Was really surprised how little force it takes to get to that torque rating.

Just did mine this week, it took about 40 minutes. The only annoying part was the foam cover on the pass side.... Makes me wonder why it even there lol...
this was MUCH easier than my 12' raptor with two plugs / cylinder and the bottoms hidden behind the spring towers under the engine..... truly ugly....

It's there for noise reduction. The HPFP is LOUD under normal operation...Ford doesn't want people thinking they're truck is Broken

Appreciate the note, I have to admit that between the wind noise, the stereo and my mud tires I couldn't hear a locomotive horn outside much less my own engine.

@ZFGracing , gap advice for the Ruthenium plugs in a Raptor on E50 Race tune? I will also run a 91 E10 race tune, so hopefully a single gap will work across your various tunes.

I gapped mine to .028

That gap will be fine for both

026-028 is all you need. I've ran that for almost 1yr, stock turbos, and bigger. 91>E85.
