I think both undertightning and OVERtightning can cause a launched plug. OVERtighning because there are only 4-5 threads holding the plugs in an aluminum head.
When changing plugs, run them down snug/finger tight and the 1/16th of a TURN more

[B]There are some V-10's blowing plugs.
Everytime i go WOT in my L , i think to myself wonder if a plug is gonna blow out like a bullet!
If this ever happens to me, think i would have both heads replaced, with something better...
