so im guessing the previous owner to my s2k never changed the plugs because the hex head bolts that hold the cover over the plugs wont budge and i have tried everything im about to drill them out and try an extractor unless anyone can help me out with an alternative?????

Put it in place then start tapping it with a hammer, but hold the bottom part so it doesnt fall out. They shouldnt be that hard. Remember lefty loosey right tightey.... just in case

they tense to do that, they bolt itself is SS and the VC is aluminium. They expand in different rate and sometime they will seize up pretty good, esp when the previous dude didn't put antiseize on the bolt.

give it a good jab on the wrench, don't try to apply force to it slowly with an extension or you can stripe it.

i ended up drilling them out and ima replace them this time with some anti-seize on there i think the heat from the friction of drilling them loosend them up as soon as i got the heads drilled off they became loose

mine tends to do that even though i check my spark plugs often. It's pretty simple, u just need a sudden 'snap' to get it loose.

WOW!! I am very surprised that drilling out the bolts worked them loose.

even though youve got them out already, ive got a trick that works pretty well. I use it for work, when im takin mail machines apart. just put your screw driver in the head of the screw, and give the top of the screw driver a stong tap with a hammer.
