Nice Burb!
I heard of a trick on the glow plugs, I haven't tried it yet but it came from someone who works on tons of the Detroits and has had specific training.
Loosen the glow plug and pull it as far as you can by hand.
Unplug the fuel cut off solenoid at the front of the engine.
Crank the engine over and the compression will blow the glow plug out.
Easier than breaking them off and digging out the pieces...
I assume it will shoot out like a bullet though, might want some sort of cushion to catch it.
