Day 2
So today I drained the fluids and started to remove bolts and hoses. The Coolant Rad and fans were removed today and the A/C Rad will be removed for good soon.
I also stuck a wheel on to see the fitment and is fits the way I like it. The fronts stick out from the fender by half an inch, and the rear stick out by 1.5 inches lol
I pulled the fuel line off of the fuel rail and used a rag to soak up the leaks
Removed the camshafts and head bolts, they cam out easier this time. Don't know if I have more strength or they didn't have the proper tq when installed. I never did a retorque after a heat cycle.
Removed that bitch of a power steering pump. Need to get a new one. I cracked the cast aluminium housing.
This is the hardline from the PS pump that is annoying to remove
Old passenger side engine mount removed
That's it for now, the side cover needs to come off to remove the head.
