yeah it's a pain! Thankfully I've done it with the engine pulled but it was obvious how much of a pain that would be with the engine in!
Nice, those wheels definitely look like tl-s wheels!

Project LS3S - '94 Stealth
- Build thread on 3si http://www.3si.org/forum/f1/mdoe8s-n...72/?highlight=
I did my abs delete with stock lines and the engine still in the car... It was kind of a pain. The turbo stayed in. I had to separate the steering column to slide a line behind it but that was it.
okay. can't for my life see how I could turn a wrench on the propvalve with the turbo in the way. no leverage at all and maybe 25 degreee turning radius for the wrench.
Turbos will be replaced in near future anyways so will be good to have it broken loose once so next time will be easier. Also will replace those 20+ years rusty nuts to ss or titanium while I'm at it.
Maybe removing just the heat shield will work.
You don't have to take the valve cover off. Just the intake manifold and then the dreaded exhaust shields and 02 housing (I never really removed the 02 housing just disconnected and let it hang out)

My Garage
I cleaned off my Enkei's off car. Last time they were cleaned was the day of the car show in Kentucky....
I got my confirmation message that the powder coater will get my front subframe crossmembers & anti-sway bar powdered in the next couple days...Finally, progress can continue!
I've also been prepping to do a batch of like ten front valve covers this weekend...Hopefully they help to free up some more cash as I'm going DD car shopping very soon.
