    Dude, you have to get an engine stand! Would make things a lot easier and....less sweat.

        do they not have a Harbor Freight in MD? its only 39.00 or so...

        Personally i would shoot myself trying to do that without a stand.

                Just buy a m50 from a early car and your good to go. I bought a 93 m50 vanos for $500 bucks that run's. There's my intake manifold, all brackets, tb, wire harness, etc.

                  If you need it, I have a full OBDII setup from ECU to the key, with the steering column, that I can let go for semi-cheap.

                      semi-easier wiring. Other than that, none.

                          and the obdii is now fully documented. so if you know how to read and if you know how to run wires you're good ;d
