So the SC kit arrives tomorrow, so I decided to do most of the tear down work early. Everything went pretty smooth surprisingly. Usually I give some highlights of things that the instruction or DIYs forget to tell you about, but I don't have to many helpful facts. The instructions for the kit are laid out extremely well.
I would point out that you really don't have to take your lower skid guard off(damn plastic push screws), you can work around it.
Also they recommend taking two nuts and placing them together to pull the studs out of the head of the engine. I couldn't fit both nuts on so I used some pliers and something to protect the stud to turn them.
The hardest part of the whole dissembling of parts was removing the idle pulley and the tensioner pulley assembly. Overall the work was just time consuming, it took me roughly 4-5 hours to tear everything down. I had a CAI already so that helps.
Wish me luck hopefully the install is as smooth as today's work.
