Do you have to remove engine from car to change cams & remove heads from engine? Would like to get head work done & than upgrade cams, Thank you for your help.

Anything is possible but it's just easier to take the motor out heck just to get to the passenger side tensioner is a PITA with motor in the car.
One could probably do it but not worth the time/headache also if you take the motor out can can fix other issues much easier like a leaky oil pump cover gasket etc,

Did you know Yorkville was one of America's best town for a family to live.

I changed the belt earlier this year. I had to utilize two Korean kids and a 5 gallon paint stick.

There was a couple of legal issue, If I wanted to take a picture I would have had to pay them minimum wage plus supply health care for a minimum of a 12 months, Unemployment for 36 months, Social Security till they die or the world ends.
Was easier to give them 5.00 and say thank you.

I am waiting for the US government to have a fire sale. Should be within the next two years. I am guessing that the add will say "Going out of Business" moving to china.

Everything listed above is a joke. I dont see the Fire sale happening in two years, More like 18 months.

I would get the car to Pete, his prices are pretty good considering the work entailed...had him do my clutch because I was backlogged with stuff...seriously I do not think you could do it yourself cheaper when you consider your time, etc....Petes the man and he is right down the road.

Not to mention that you get a Greek you can bitch at if it doesn't work right. Frankly, Pete will not allow his rep to be overshadowed. It'll be right when you get it back. Just getting in and enjoying driving your ZR is worth the money.

:o just a fwiw from the real peanut gallery. If I had to do that kind of work to my LT5, and I was anywhere near FBI land....my car would be there in a skinny minute!
