Was that a 4.4 or a 4.6 frank?
I think the longer stroke on a 4.6 would not be as friendly lol Either way love some gnarly pics!

Well I removed the intake and found more issues The CCV cap and diaphragm is completely missing and the oil separator drain is dry rotted.
Can the oil separator be cleaned out and reused? Does anyone know the best place to by the CCV ? Should I replace the Knock sensors while I am in there or do they go bad that often? |

BimmerM3inGA , Do you remember how you removed the D/S exhaust manifold. I could not reach the nuts for the manifold so I took the two nuts off the manifold/exhaust pipe junction thinking I could lift the head off with the manifold. No such luck. I had too rotate the head as much as possible to access the manifold nuts, only then was I able to remove the head. I do not want too put it back in that way because I will most likely damage the new head gasket. Do you have any suggestions ?

swissfrank , It appeared that the motor mount was in the way from me being able to remove it. Did it cause a problem for you?

Nope just disconnect the two bolt per bank that connect the manifold to the down pipe and maybe a little wiggling they go.in and out quite easy. Twomsets of hands definitely make it a lot easier. Pic showing the manifold attached to the head either when I pulled it out or put it back in.
