Dismantling the engine has come along great. I have the intake manifold off, along with the starter and the thermostat. It is really important that I keep track of each piece or bolt I take off of the engine so that when the time comes to put it back together I can do that. I am documenting and putting all of the parts and bolts for each part into a plastic bag with notes so that i will be able to put everything back together and know where everything goes.
The next thing I have to do to take apart the engine is to remove the cylinder head. To start I need to remove the valve cover to get to the head bolts. The valve cover is very easy to remove it doesn't take any specialized tools just a ratchet and a socket set. Once the valve cover is removed you can see into the cylinder head and the engine looks very bare and exposed.
