if u see it with the valve covers and coil packs on, u would think its impossible to get to the rear bolts on the valve covers...i have 98 heads so that means perameter bolts...after getting started we got it done though...

Nice job man. I did an S-10/LSX conversion last year, and yes it took some persuasion in certain areas.

Going to move this one to conversions/hybrids.
