BTW, don't forget which spark plug wire goes where when removing. It would suck to get a misfire simply due to getting wires mixed up.
this is a LS motor they have coil packs you can't screw up

Thanks. BTW, I take it you needed a socket extension to reach the lower bolts at the bottom? Do you recall the bolt size(s)? Sorry for all the Qs. 'Just wanna know what to expect. I can't wait for mine to arrive, along w/ my intake!

15mm deep 6 point, 13mm socket, 12mm socket, 12" + 6" entension w/wobbly joint, 15mm open end. On the passenger side you'll need to unbolt and remove the dip stick tube, be careful with tiny red oring on tube.
