Core Plugs installed (w/pictures!)
Okay everyone, thank you all for such great help. I've installed the
new plugs (using permatex sealant), and recessed them into the holes
(and only slightly smashed one finger). I've taken a picture of each
plug and placed them at:
http://members.***.net/quattrogr4/Jeep/
So for those of you who love to look at pictures of Jeep 4.0 L
freeze/core plugs, here's your chance to see all five! Of course, I
would love feedback to see if everyone seems happy with this before I
put the manifolds back on.
You guys are truly awesome, and your help is very much appeciated!

Re: Core Plugs installed (w/pictures!)
Well... You know you are going to get a little flack over #2 anyway, eh?
I personally don't like the dents and if I dented one, I would re-do
it. Even with the permatex....
#4 has a couple dings too....
They might hold, but I would expect a leak down the road someday.
Just my $0.02,
