Default Gen 2 head cooling mod

How involved is the install? I was reading the instructions and they where talking about jacking the car up, moving this, taking out that. I have basic hand tools and my Apt complex parking lot. Help me out guys.

I did mine with basic hand tools. Just make sure you have a whole day to work on it so you can take your time and not have to rush. Hardest part is getting the freeze plug out.

the old still "cooling head mod" kit took out the freeze plug on the rear side of the head which required you to jack the car up and remove the tranny but not the newer kits. good luck.
