Can't. I'm going down to my uncles to do it, which is about two hours away. I've already got the dates taken off work. His place is the only place I can go with a garage and an abundance of tools.

I don't want to start another thread...so does anybody know if this head bolt kit comes with 10 or 20 bolts?

I'm not sure if its a kit or one head or both.

It's enough for both heads. The stock manifolds may fit, but you'll probably have issues with the plugs and wires. You can pick up a set of long tubes for $99 at summit that will work.

Thanks! I would go with long tubes but that means I'd have to get another midpipe, which means more money. I'll see how it works out.

you are going to have a hard time if they don't fit, I mean you can pound a set of aftermarket headers with a hammer to make them work, but that will be tough on a stock exhaust manifold.....good luck though I will be undertaking the same task as soon as thumper is done with my p heads (tfs1 cam though)
