i am hoping that it doesnt require to much skill, the instructions seem to be well detailed which will really help.

It can be a big PITA. But make sure you pin it away from the notch... If i can find the pic ill show you what i mean. You also need a decent drill. I used a craftsmen batt drill... it took some goading but it got the job done.

I cant find the pic anywhere. I know I have it somewhere though. I might have to dig around on my external HD for it. That or its on my dead laptop. But if you look at the crank with the pulley off you will see a notch in it. try not to do what i did and drill right next to it lol. You may have to pull the radiator off the car to do the drilling. I had just barely enough room to get the drill in. but i also moved it up and out of the way. If you were closer id let you borrow my torque set that i have.
