Does anyone know the "exact" procedure for changing the plugs and wires on a 97 camaro Z28 with a 5.7L LT1 engine. It looks like a serious undertaking and before I dive in I would appreciate a little direction. Thanks

If you are unfamiliar with this specific engine you would not understand. You have to remove the exhaust at the manifold, ac compressor, alternator, acc. Drive belt and various pullys. The distributor sits flush on the front of the engine behind the waterpump and the entire acc. Drive system. I am looking for anyone who has done it before so I know where to start and if there are any specific issues I need to be aware of before I dive deep.

Like I said its not that bad, there might be some clips that hold the wires in place. The hard part is going to be fishing the wires out&back in agin.
