major PITA. intake removal, radiator removal, much of the front dress of the motor has to come off as you're pulling the heads.
(call me dumb, but this is a V6 right? two heads?)

i just did my sisters 98 head gaskets about a month ago.. its not hard just takes time to take off everyting .. and make sure you know how to put shit back together.. and the other thing that took time was getting the gaskets from Felpro.. its easy a weekend job if you have everything you need.
