I don't own one of them, so I cannot comment on the clearances. But, I was under the assumption that the plugs are a straight shot downward from above as they live between the four valves.

If this is true, you have, effectively, unlimited space above the plug.

The torque stick works in either direction and I encourage you to procure it if you can find one that is 30 lb-ft. 35 lb-ft. might also be OK..........but, I would doubt its availability.

If you do it, please advise of your success............or not.
