I am literally shoulder-deep in mine right now. I'm gonna tell you now, this isn't for the faint-of-heart. The theory itself isn't the issue, putting it into practice is. Be prepared for scraped knuckles and a lot of swearing.

I do have a question, how did you get the valve cover to come out? I've got it all unbolted, and it's loose, just can't get the clearance to get it out. Thought about removing the cross-bar, but not sure how the other end is attached? I'm tired of messing with it for the night. I'm replacing the gasket and the valvetronic gasket as well. Also need to figure out how to replace the breather tube. The other ends are underneath the intake manifold.
