Well, first of all, I need to find out if we all are up for doing my strut/springs (which I will truely appreciate, it's been 4 months of torture, just ask Sam). Next, I need to know if SVTman15 is able to use the garage saturday the 16th (any time of day) or sunday (in the morning). Third, I need to know if there are any tools that I will have to bring/purchase. And last, I need to know what it is that you all want to eat. If you guys aren't able to do it this weekend, could you guys give me some probable future dates.
Ps If the garage is not available, can it be done with jack stands. I will look into getting the compressor (any special type?). We can do this outside my house if u guys want. Thanks a whole lot guys.

It can be done with a jackstand and a jack. You will need a spring copressor, you can rent one from Auto Zone, for a refundable $50. Other than that all you need are some sockets and a fairly big allen wrench.

I believe all I need for gutting the precats is a drill, a couple screwdrivers, a hammer, and a bolt to fill the hole up that I drilled...or a welder to fill the hole. From what I understand it's best if the entire header is removed...that is the hard part!
So what time are we talking about tomorrow?
