Going to be doing them in my car next weekend. Shorty gave me the short parts list, wondering if there's anything special I need to do

 
Ratcheting box end wrenches will make you swear less, other than that, it's not too hard.

 
So it wasn't until I called joel who had me call adam that I found out you need to tilt the engine to make it possible to remove the valve cover on the drivers side. Would've made the pass side easier too. Other that that and having a hard time reaching a couple bolts it was a piece of cake

 
you can remove both valve covers w out tilting the motor. the only time I tilt the motor is to remove the head

 
haha you talked to the 2 people that that never work on the cars. Like Mike says it can be done without tilting it. Your variable cam engine makes it tougher but it still can be done. Did you lose my number?

I'm glad you did it. Now you got warm and dry spark plugs!

 
I asked joel if he thought I should ask you but he said you don't answer often on the weekend. I tried every angle imaginable to get that drivers side off and it wouldn't come. Oh well. Be that much easier next time
