Default Started my Cam and Header install

Well, yesterday afternoon I started. I've got bruised and bloddy knuckles to prove it. Any words of advice? I havent gotten inside the engine yet, and I'm not putting my headers on until I ge the valvesprings swapped. I do have the manifold on the drivers side off. Do I need to remove the starter to get the pass side off?

i did so i didnt have to stress anything. People say it can be done without but it takes alot of patience and when you under a car like that, you all will agree with me when something isnt going smooth, there is no such thing as patience. Its an easy step just pay attention to how you took it off and dont loose the small screw! Good Luck!
