i've done mine so many times thats it becomes routine . you get faster as time goes on, as with doing anything on your engine.

and tripp: as far as the coolant tubes if you get the intake from a sponsor they should have the option to add the new coolant tubes to the package. i bought my intake off of ebay and the coolant tubes from gm parts direct. could probably be had cheaper from paceparts though

coolant tube p/n

- 1x 2001+ front coolant pipe - #12568478
- 2x 2001+ rear coolant plugs - #12562788

Big TIP;

Be careful removing and installing the intake. Move slow and careful, after taping up the rear 3 bolts on drvr side and rear 2 on pass side, slowly slide forward and up making sure the vacuum line for the brake booster does not get caught on the oil pressure sending unit. It breaks really easy. Then again, install, slowly slide it back and down keeping the lines and wires out of the way. Untape the bolts and tighten down.

Complete write up should be on install U,
