A friend of mine did this not too long ago. Its a hellish nightmare, but your car will love you for it. Sounds like #12 the closest to the driver is the beast in rare form.

Thanks Shocka,
I replaced my plugs last week,after looking at your friends site and seeing that mine actually looked easier than his.....I went for it and it was not too bad.The time consuming part was loosing the plugs a little at a time and squirting wd40 in then working the plugs in and out a little at a time so not to take threads out of the head.I am putting in a new MAFS tomorrow and see how she runs.Thanks again.
