some people say i should leave the manifolds on and some people say i should take them out.

i need to take my head off soon and was wondering what the best way to do it is?

and can i use the s14 SR20DET FSM (pdf) with my s13 sr20det? pretty sure it's the same, but just making sure :)

thanks~

Where are you located in NC. I'm in Greenville and would love to meet up and give you a hand if you'd like. Always interested in learning more about our cars!

the beginning of the FSM is fuzzy on how to take out the intake manifold for my sr.

could anyone lend me some tips? i'm -trying- to look up each indivdual thing, but it's not going to well. i wish the PDF was searchable lol

alright, i think i got everything. It seems that the manifold it stuck. It wiggles, but it seems it needs to clear the studs on the bottom on either side of it. (it's like it needs to clear the bottom studs so i can pull it off the top studs)

did i do something wrong?

Do i really need to remove the radiator to get the head out?


and.. power steering oil pump and water pump pully are on the right side, correct? one is above the other...

just making sure
