Do you have any pics of your intake kit maybe we can help you through it. I realy hope you do not need help replacing the plug wires though.

plug wires and intakes are easy if you have a flubitz bar and kindelwhacker.

(pointing to my left) ...he started it!

It's nice to have help with something like this, but you might learn more by rolling up your sleeves and tackling it with a bit of good ol' sheer will and determination!

Start with the plug wire...make SURE you put a coat of DIELECTRIC GREASE (aka "Tune-Up Grease") on the inside of all the rubber boots. This will prevent them from fusing to the spark plugs. Then, one at a time, remove the old one and replace it with the matching new one. Make sure you get a good connection - you should be able to feel a "click" of sorts.

Once you sucessfully finish that, you might just find yourself brave enough to tackle that intake.

Sooo...if you really want a helping hand, looks like you got a few offers so you're all set. But you're gonna feel great if you sucessfully tackle this on your own!

He's right. You'd be much better off trying to take on the job all by your lonesome (considering the size of the "Project"). Just take your time and you'll be OK. After all, best way to learn is by getting in there and doing it yourself!

BTW. Sorry for my smartass comment, could'nt help myself .
