    How much coolant do you need to drain to pull the blower off of the car? Or is it not necessary to drain any and just clean up any that leaks out and top off when you're done?

    you wont need to drain for that, its the highest point. drill and tap and block off those holes for next time so that you wont have to worry about it.

    Yup, I quiksteeled the 2 Coolant passages in my LIM so I wouldn't have to worry about that crap any longer.
