Does my front bumper need to come off to get the cam out? It looks like the shell around the pony (which is part of the bumper it looks like) is gonna be in the way.

I got the driver side head off, a friend stopped by and Mike and I took a break. He's loosening the h-pipe to manifold bolts now so we can yank those. Then comes the pass. side head, smog crap, and egr crap. Then onto the timing cover and chain, then the cam!!

YES!! I had read that too, but the bracket with the pony looked like it might be in the way. Does the pony at least need to come out? I already got the fan, radiator, and condensor out, I pulled those out last night.

then you should have just enough room. it's tight but it fits after you take out the condensor.
