Working inside is SOO much nicer.... Having heat makes it even better....... Having someone else work on it is the best.... though the most expensive...

Post up pics when you have the intake off.

So kick back, relax, with a beverage of your choice, and enjoy a pleasant evening.

Default Pulled the lower intake manifold! Oh, joy!

Well? Here it is with the intake manifold off. Lots of dirt from the mice nesting in the valleys. The firewall end of the block ports look pretty nasty!
