FYI....what was an easy car to work on with the C5/6 cars...is now not so much fun. We built a few special tools here in the shop to do the cars a little quicker but it still takes a bit more time than the older cars.

What really gets me is the lack of gaskets. Something that was pretty fool proof on the other cars has all been replaced by silicone.

hey Anthony....I already have that bookmarked, thanks

I am looking for something a bit more detailed, just to be sure that I have everything that I need, tool wise, etc.

any chance that the injectors w/ rails will pull out w/o $300 worth of tools?

thx
