timing jumped...

[Todd Phenneger]

The entire procedure is really fairly easy.  Pull the Turbo with
the head to make it easy. Just dissconnect at Downpipe.
  If you must do without a Bently then at least go get a Hayne's
so you have Torque values and stuff.
   Make sure Exhaust Valves are Sodium Filled.
   If you have the money, while your in there, clean everything
up.  Clean tops of pistions, get off all carbon deposits.  Maybe
even Port and Polish head.  That costs money but cleaning up
stuff is just your time.  (can be done while te heads int he
shop)
  Replacing head once ist back is a 2-person job unless you have
guides to put in the head to hold head gasket and guide head
down onto it.  Its a HEAVY unit (Esp with Turbo and EM attached)
so extra hands are nice to have around.
  Best of luck.  let me know if you have any mor equestions.
