Default Re: In car removal of cam covers

If I were to do it my approach would be to leave to brake booster alone. Your time and fussing around under the dash will be considerable with R & R. Like Clint said... drop the exhaust, drop the C beam and lower the trans enough to gain access to the rear of the motor. Make sure you have a good torx setup and a sure way to apply pressure down on the cam cover bolts before attempting to unscrew them. I would also soak them for hours with the best loosening agent you can come up with... opinions will vary on what to use. Take your time and good luck with it. A nice powder coated engine is a very gratifying project imho.
