    Sounds like a case of beer and some elbow grease. O and pizza. Gotta have the brain food.

    Got the fuel rail and lower off (for the 5th time). Exhaust manifold came off without a fuss (after the bolts being heating repeatedly for 17 years, you would think they would be rusted on). Rocker arms and pushrods are out. Only 4 bolts left and the head comes off. I pulled and pulled and they just wouldn't break loose, so I called it a day. Tomorrow the fun begins

    Replacing a blown head gasket. Or what I think is a blown head gasket.

    I concur. Did that with my 03. Outcome was not so good. Thus my motor swap. Best of luck brother
