dont forget rtv if the kit dont come with it, thread sealant, and vac T's and some vac tubing, as those T's will break on you, its 100% probability they will crack.
and one gallon of straight antifreeze.
the fat vac line off the TB that loops to the back of the engine, it also likes to break. i used a fat line that fit the nipple on the TB, then the smaller one fit inside the fat one, then pushed it on the factory plastic line.
i took the lower rad hose off the engine, propped it up so i saved what coolant was in the radiator. then took both dog bones off, then rocked the engine back and fourth till no more coolant came out the where the hose clamped on. then start taking it apart.
when you pop the lower intake off, have the egr tube removed, the elbow broken off, then pop it up, once its free, lift it up and off as level as you can to keep what coolant maybe left in the lim. theres a lip that can hold a small amount inside it. if your careful, you wont spill any in the engine, and wont need to do a oil change. i was able to not spill any coolant, no oil change for me at the time of the lim job.
some guys like to do 2 oil changes in a row with in hours of starting it up. just to be safe.
