shouldent take u more than a hr. at the most. fairly easy.

yea it seems like the hardest part will just be takin off all the stuff attached to it..

just make sure you put silicone/rtv on the bolts that go into a water jacket

i put the silicone/rtv all over the bolts and then i put some on the block where the waterpump bolts up right? and where do i put the paper gasket?? against the water pump right?
