dude - be VERY careful when you chase out those threads - use lots of grease to capture any shavings, make sure you have the piston down in the bore so you don't ding the top of it, and get it in straight - this is a one-time deal, bugger it up and you're looking at having an insert fitted. Once you're done, turn the engine over a few times to blow any shavings out before you install the plug.

what size socket do you need?
Is there room for one of these thin-wall steel
sockets?

Then just put regular socket on outside end for ratchet wrench

What you need is an M10 x 1.0 limited access spark plug thread chaser - but I don't think anyone makes one :-(
Here's how you make a chaser from an old plug - I usually break the electrode out of the center along with the grounding tang just to eliminate any chance of dropping bits into the head. Once you've cut the slots, run it through a very good m10 nut a few times to get rid of any burrs etc. If it snags in a good nut, it's not going to help your case - you want it to be smooth as silk in a good thread.
Some people cut the slots at an angle, some cut straight up. Personally, I like an angle but I don't have any reason as to why. I've used this trick twice in my life, both times it was "puckering".
