Yes. That $200 is what it cost to fix one plug roughly.

You may need to re-phrase your first post as I'm having difficulty interpreting what you mean. Do you want the back end to be a different shape or do you just want to be able to spin out in it?
I blew a plug a month ago and fixed it myself. Easy job, but much easier if the heads are removed. Wouldn't hurt to do it. Just make sure you use the thread locker on the inserts, and anti-seize on the plugs. You dont want an insert to come out on you later.
Thanks for the response guys im going to order the timeserts & toolkit and do all of the spark plug threads, and hopefully i wont have to worry ever again after my full build.
cost me 400 bucks to do mine!
