Hey yall i was wondering if its possible to change the headgaskets without pulling the motor on a 01 Trans-am i have never done this before on a ls1..but it needs to be done its not blown real bad no coolant in the oil but it is burning it and i also seen a small wet spot under the passenger front side of the motor... so are there any write-ups or videos on how to change em w/o pulling the motor out?

Yes it is possible. Its really not that hard to take the heads of while the motor is in the car

^^^ That is a great source, just be sure to get out as much coolant as possible. You don't want it to end up in your cylinders when you pull the heads. Plus if you have had thoughts of putting a cam in if you haven't already, this would be a good time.
