I've been by Woody's place a few times for a bunch of parts - there's no better guy associated with these cars than Woody. He's been invaluable - not only as a source of good used parts, but sound honest advice as well. Unfortunately, as of now Woody doesn't have any real good low miles 3.2L "S" engines on hand, that's the word straight from him.

I've looked at a couple of articles on R&R-ing the heads. It looks like a real pain in the a$$, but not un-doable. Doesn't look any worse than pulling the engine in the first place. There might be some tool purchasing or fabrication needed, but it can certainly be done. The plan is to put the engine on a good quality rotating engine stand, put some Stevie Ray Vaughan on the garage stereo, and go at it very slowly and methodically. The best advice I have gotten so far (and I appreciate ALL the advice you guys have given, believe me) came from Brian, who said take your time, do it a bit at a time, there's no rush to finish. That's exactly what I plan to do.
