Needed tools for upgrades
 
If I'm installing 3.6 cams and replacing the exhaust HE with some upgraded exhaust/muffler and some seals replacement for some clean up type work, what special tools would you guys recommend that I have handy so I don't get started only to stop because I have to wait for a tool that I had to order be shipped? I know all about the unpredictables, all I want to do is minimize the delays on disassembly/reassembly because I need to do something that only a special tool will do the job. Any advice will be certainly appreciated.

Okay, let me ask my question this way:
Is there a resource other than the Bentley Manual that will list out what tools will be needed for a specific operation? The Bentley Manual is an excellent resource but it really doesn't tell you which tool will be used for what, it only lists out the tool name, part # and a drawing of what it looks like. I know I could use the forum, but who has hours & hours to sift through thread after thread organizing a list of what special tools to have on hand. Your advice is always appreciated.

You will need
1Cam tool P237
2-Ft pound torque wrench
3-A old spark plug ( to remove the pin in front of the cams)You use the small threaded side of the plug
4 - alen key set the ones that come in L shape sets. You will use it to remove the heat exchangers . What I do is use the small part of the "L" and put a socket into it with an extension as a lever.
5-a small swivel to remove the other heat exchanger bolts
6- a lot of heat the remove those bolts
7- z block and metric dial indicator
8- the new valve adjusting tool pelican sells .great great great tool
That's all The specific tools you need
