    Keep an eye on the spark plug wells, it could be a valve cover gasket.

    At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

      Pretty sure you can do the rear plugs with out pulling the intake manifold.

      PM me for:
      Sandblasting(I use glass beads)
      Diesel repairs or performance products.

            Yup!

            We pulled the front engine mount and used a ratchet strap to rotate/tilt the motor forward.
