    Look @ time 25:20 in the referenced BRAIN SURGEON video (fire rings)
    Look @ time 5:15 in the referenced SANTA YouTube video (fire rings)
    Look @ times :25 and 7:15 in the referenced SANTA YouTube video (intake manifold bolt that could not be reached in the engine compartment)

    1) I will check my FELPRO head gasket to ensure it has joined fire rings on at least one side...

    2) Should (for ease) the intake manifold stay bolted to the head until the assembly is removed from the engine compartment..?

    3) Do I need to use any sealer or gasket spray anywhere besides IF reusing the old camshaft plug..?

    4) O'Reilly's had the camshaft plug $6.00 total shipped from mainland arrives 12/28 and ebay seller not willing to ship to Hawaii... Thanks to FMS88 I was able to show O'Reilly's which plug matched this photo...

    5) Per FMS88 tips, I bought the fingertip covers to use as valve lifter holders (for removing rockers/cam from head)
