So, the exhaust and intake manifolds are off, the head bolts are all loosened, and the cams are lined up. Intake was a pain in the A$$! And the exhaust wasn't much better. I'm using BT's write-up as a guide but I had to do a couple of things he didn't have on there. I had to disconnect the cooling line from the turbo that goes to the water pump and the oil line from above the oil filter so I could move the turbo and exhaust manifold down. Tomorrow I hope to get it all done save for the parts I have to order.
