The plan is to have a shaved rear-end now wiper no antenna or spoiler, Ill prolly be painting it this winter going with a Gunmetal charcoal type paint should look sweet.

You know ya can rent a engine crane.... But eh...good luck lifting the head off of there. But then again I did it with the intake and exhaust mani still on it. Heavy one. But I do like the spoilerless 2gs. Very clean.

You can use those black paper clip things and clip those to the T-Belt. If you're smart, then it doesn't matter if you cut the T-Belt since you know you'll already be using a new one, which you should. Also, since you're rebuilding, you won't need to have the motor set at TDC. So, you can essentially cut the T-Belt as it is. However, if that's not how you wanna do it, clip the belt to the gears. Remove the gears from the cams by taking off the valvecover and putting a wrench on the cam to stop it from moving. You can then torque off the gear.

I recommend having a rubber mallet to break the head off the shortblock. I found that it helps to break the head loose.
