getting those out are a royal pain. I think you have to unbolt the back two engine mounts and jack up the rear of the engine so it turns. I'd just get the service manual for it; it's going to be a pretty involved job for something simple

Re: spark plugs on 1997 chevy monte carlo z34

A boot puller, a deep sparkplug socket and a universal joint or two is what is required for me to change the spark plugs on my 3.1L which is transversely mounted. A royal pain in the @$$.
