yeah the exterior corrosion was all over the intake and clamps i didnt drive the truck for about 5 weeks and it just set and i popped the hood and the battery terminals were corroded along with surface corrosion on everything else.. i upgraded and added some grounds so now my intake is more susceptible to corrosion than it was before but it dropped the resistance from batter to block from 28ohms to 6 ohms

Here's what mine look like after about 10k... plus Torco in every tank. Orange buildup is from the Torco. But I have no external corrosion like you do. You must have alot of salts getting kicked up into your engine bay. BTW, I use a copper anti-seize on the plug threads... overkill I know... but it works too

I had the same problem with the mustang I had. The plugs are sitting in the bottom of a 5" well. I like to keep my motor clean so I would always have to remove the coil packs and blow them out with air when I washed the motor. It was a pain. The plugs still always looked like yours lol.
