Drain block of coolant. Remove intake and all of the bolts. Remove exhaust manifold bolts and valve cover bolts, remove head bolts and the accessory bracket connected to the ac comp. and alternator. Remove heads and the bolts going to the ground straps on the back. Have heads magnafluxed and checked for run out. Run felpro headgaskets and new bolts. Also intake bolts are torque to yield. $12 from the dealer.
