If you are going to yank the heads after all.... couple words of advice. Take LOTS of pictures of hose routing, bolt locations etc..... every step of the way...... so when you go to reassemble you have some reference to where stuff goes.... you will have a lot of it laying loose and it gets confusing sometimes.

Secondly, double.... no triple check every step upon reassembly... DO NOT RUSH THROUGH IT as you can easily miss tightening a bolt or reconnecting a hose wrong, or even forgetting a gasket or fluid refill. Take your time so you can feel confident and secure in your repair.

Third, I would strongly recommend you have the heads machined and pressure tested while they are off..... if they warped even a little bit while they were overheated, and you dont machine them flat again on the sealing surface, expect to need new head gaskets again shortly.

Finally, hopefully you have a ride to and from an auto parts store while you do this, because you will most likely find misc. stuff you need in the middle of doing this.

Good luck and im sure you will have lots of help here!!!
