I dunno... I was worried about doing them on my car reading all the posts but it turned out to be pretty easy to handle. I took my time though and stretched it over a couple days. I've not had AC in my car for months so that was already out.. I took the Alternator and starter out and just by raising and lowering the engine up and down I had plenty of room with ratcheting wrenches to get the job done. the only hard part was getting the 2nd long bolt in. I also replaced the TA mount and trans mount at the same time. I'm running stock manifolds too.

I don't know.... I did the driver's side with exhaust on the car, but the car was in the air and it took me two hours taking my time.

I did the passenger side on my back with the exhaust on the car as well. That took me about three hours, which isn't bad considering you have to remove the ac compressor and starter.

It took a little while, but it wasn't that bad.... I'd rank it a 6 out of 10. I think the first time I swapped the heads was worse.
