any advice? i'd like to avoid removing the intake manifold. fooled around with it a bit today, looks like a wire-bracket can be taken off the alternator to make life a bit easier...

i'd really appreciate any thought anyone can contribute

if your only taking it from the block in one spot, use the port on the passenger side

what in the sam hell are you doin? ha ha just jack the car up, take off the IM support bracket and stock breather box. Make sure you buy a 14mm allen 1/2 drive socket. You need about 1 1/2' - 2' of leverage to get the plugs out easily. I did it last week on my friends car.

youll need to remove anything coming out of the oil pressure sending unit spot along with the oil filter

thanks for the input.

the passenger side shouldnt be a problem at all...the driver's side looks like it may give me a little bit of a headache.

i appreciate the advice

I did it while i was doing an intake manifold swap, good luck when installing it. i have to do one from the bottom for a friend in a couple weeks :-/ post up what you ended up doing.
