Getting to this point has been slowed to say the least. The bolts for the rocker arms were buttass tight and I kept thinking that I was going to round off one of the 5mm heads and I would totally in the toilet as far as getting it out.
But with a little but of patience, some penetrating oil & heat and talking real nice to them I was able to get them all out with no damage.
Now it was on to getting the cam towers off
Being very careful in keeping everything together just the way it was originally put together
I've been using both the Bentley manual and Wayne's book as my guides and working the two together. On one side I took the cam tower off first and then the heads as suggested by the Bentley manual. On the other side I took the cam tower and heads off at the same time and then separated the two on the bench. I liked doing it that way better. If I ever have to do it again I'll have to remember to loosen the nuts and bolts first before removing the two together, it was a pain in the ass getting them loose with the heads wanting to slide around on the bench top when torque was put to the bolts.
Now the heads have already been sent to the machine shop, the cams have already returned from Mr. Elgin being regroup and polished. As soon as I gets the heads back and the fuel injectors back I can pretty much get started on putting everything back together. Although I do see more cleaning in my future.
