I've got a few questions

Well Ive been on a little spending spree here lately, I went and bought some BOW-TIE Valve Covers, a Holley AFPR, MAT Relocation kit,IROC Splash Gaurds, new Turn signal switch, gasket kit for TPI, Security cover for the rear and thats about it for now. Now comes the hard part!! cause I have to take the whole top of my motor off to get to the intake gasket.
1) is there a tech article on the MAT Relocation?
2)How do I relieve the fuel pressure before I take everything apart?


I cant find a damn soul here in Winston Salem tht knows ho to work on TPI motors, its like the TPI scares them away. After seeing that I really dont trust anyone to work on my car. Is there anyone in the Winston Salem area that can come and help me do this? I'll pay ya...........LOL just a thought...thanks guys

may not be the correct way to do it but i just loosen a fuel fitting a little and let it bleed off that way. for the tech artical i don't know. most people put them in the y piece of plastic leading from the air filters. the v6 cars came with it there.
