i did my research.... and sure enough, the pump and thermostat are located behind the timing belt... we may be able to just let the tension off the timing belt and try to work around it.... it will be close, but if we are able to keep the belt on/ holding the marks in there original position that would leave the smallest margin of error room and require less "special tools"....

...i'm sure superdoug and i could handle this project eebs.. we'll work out a date

Sweet Jet, sounds awesome. I had this crazy dream last night that the three of us (me jet and doug) were putting a BB kit on the front of my car, and I won the internet. I think I need to lay of the drugs.

On the TT, it's behind the alternator.. I was told I needed to remove the alternator to get to it. But with a lil patience I changed it without having to remove alternator. TB is just a belt. Surely there must be a way to get around it.

I like were your heads at. Eebs get in there and do some spelunking.(keep your heads out of my gutter, go find your own gutter to look around in.) See if you can see those pictures in your car and locate it.
