Re: switching heads and intake on 305 tbi

Its not too bad, and is easily done in a garage, but without the right tools, itll be difficult. The heads especially require attention as well as a good torque wrench and other tools to make sure the gasket surface is clean and there willl a good seal. Basically you have to get the gasket surface spotlessly clean w/o removing any material from the deck surface, which requires a gasket scraper and LOTS of blades. In addition, youll need teh usual inch and ft/lb torque wrenches, socket set, extensions, u-joints complete torx bit set (good ones, not the cheap stuff) screw drivers, and lots of other stuff I forgot to mention.
