take your time....

no need to pull IAC or EGR off the plenum...so those gaskets wont need replacing..

No need to take the TB off the plenum so that gasket wont need replacing

no need to take the plenum off the SC so that gasekt wont need replacing.

no need to seperate the IC from the Midplate so that one wont need replacing

the metal gaskets between SC and Midplate and midplate and Lower intake manifold are metal so need to replace those either...

ive done around 20 or IC cleans and never had to replace a gasket yet...

Removal and reinstallation...R&R

Nothing wrong with stock 180 Tstat unless yours is dead.

well when my wife runs the ac it overheats....the electric fans work not sure what the heck is the deal with it....if i don't run the ac it can be 100 degrees outside and it would not overheat..matter of a fact it stays 1-2 notches below half way...but for some reason when that ac kicks in....it overheats....with the fan going...

The boost bypass is worthless as well, if your wanting to do this just un-plug it at the track.

even if you pull all those parts off, TB from plenum, IAC, etc. those gaskets should still be fine and reuseable. done mine plenty of times on and off no problems.

t-stat, if you're working around there and replacing it anyway, i'd do 170*. otherwise, i wouldnt make a special mod out of it to do it itself. what e-fan do you have? truck definately should not be overheating with the A/C on

I have the flex-alite efan...been burning fuses like crazy...replaced the whole thing a few times....

QUICK QUESTION..i followed the HOW TO...on the intercooler cleaning....but it won't come out!!!!!! DO I NEED TO BEAT THAT BASTARD???????????lol...any ideas....it will not budge

Harley#356

not sure why its not coming off. any way to fit a pry bar or big screwdriver under a lip to try and gently pop it up?

and yeah havent ever heard a good thing about flex-a-lite fans!

A small crow bar will work as well. You may have a hidden bolt or??

cfradam

make sure that the two rear bolts are completely out.some people just try to lift the SC out with them in loose.should only have to give a good jerk on the SC snout to break it loose.if you still have problems then there is still a bolt in somewhere.
