    yep, its a pain in the ass! I had my motor out of my car and i had to swap intake manifolds and even with the motor out its a pain! good luck!]

    btw: really off topic but. How do those drop zone coilcovers ride with stock struts? And how low do you have them set? THANKS

    I have them set about a two in drop!! The outer fender molding is two inches from the top of the tire!!! It rides ok!! Before i got the camber kit the top of the tires were tucking!! The place that did my alingment told me that i have to raise to get good camber. I have SI wheels with 195/55 on it!! I think i blew them when i had it lowered more!!
