JFP do you know if the head can be installed with the engine still in the car? I know the timing will need to be set by a pro just wondering if this is something that I could do.

Thank,

It can be done, but it is no fun. Vastly easier, and quicker, if you drop the engine. This would also be an excellent time to do some other updates (RMS, IMS, AOS, etc.).
