Began working on getting the cylinder heads off:
Unplugged all wiring harness connections
Unplugged all vacuum hoses
Disconnected fuel lines
Removed intake manifold/throttle body/fuel rails assembly
Removed distributor
Removed diagnostic port from driver's side head
Removed both drive belts
Removed alternator
Removed water pump
Taking my front fascia to the body shop. Hopefully I'll have the major external work completely done inside of a week or two.
Resolved to drive it again tomorrow.

Set up the Explodaview poster and raised the doors. I think she's got a good chance. With the fascias freshly painted she almost looks brand new! I'm very excited to see the results of the contest on Sunday!
Good luck!Quote:

Never actually did a proper washing on it before. Happy to report that there are no leaks anywhere and it looks like a million bucks after a nice wipedown.
So you havent BKF'd your car before either Jon?
THAT will make it look even better you wont believe
Nope, never did... doesn't that make it shiny? I like the sort of matte finish...Quote:
