I did the mani gasket on the Delta in 1 hour but then again the only things to take off is the fuel line, vacuum lines, and the air cleaner, but an LIMG in 1.5 hours, doesn't seems possible

maybe not 1.5 but 2.5 with help is doable. Hell when i did my heads with Jeremy from DPP him a friend and i did the heads in six hours. Including port time on the uim and lim. After seeing that happen so fast i can believe that with skill and skilled help it may be somewhat possible. I do agree that it would be excessively difficult though.

ROFL, imagine the guy doing the swap, then after there is still a leak only to realize he changed the wrong gasket? That would be Priceless!

seriously took everything out of way too  it was pretty much same as getting one of my superchargers off in like 15 min same 10mm bolts pretty much ALMOST the same way to take it off. its really not hard when you already have the tools out for it.

It can be switched out, as long as you do a full flush first

Also looking at the pics the only ones that show maybe the limg off are 2 and 3 but they are pretty blurry so I can't really tell.

Well I might just have to do that. In my little town if you need dexcool or equivilant then you have to go to the local shop and it's like 30 bux for 4 liters, double the price of normal stuff.

well small update after one week of exams (still one more week of exams left) and went back out today to get a good look at the situation since when i took it apart it was nighttime. cam looks like it just came out of the box. oil really isnt that super black from the sea foam maybe just a little. ports look pretty good and also the valves. gonna be putting it together this weekend after i gather some supplies.
