For those crazy questions about headgaskets, They are pretty easy to change and thats even after I had to redrill new holes for my intake it still only took me about 4 hours and it was my first time so any information for anyone is to dive right in and do it not quite as hard as you reallt think oh yeah dont forget to drain the coolant peace

hey mike you might remember me( ) did you remove the intake or just unbolt it and let it hang for a few?

Your going to need to yank the intake as you need to clean the matting surface and its a bit hard if its just hanging in the car. Not that much extra work to take it out of the car anyways.

I pulled out the bolts and left it where it was the intake gasket usually stays on the head. make sure you take off both sides of the intake then you can manuever it where ever you want with out taking it off...any more questions and I will be happy to help thanks mike
