Thanks to Rennlist...I've got a few local Buds willing to lend the specialty tools needed. The one thing that is going to slow me down is not having a garage. My lease is up in 3 months and I have already started scoping houses. If the house does not have a garage...it is not a candidate.
This project is really going to give me the opporntunity to gain some much needed experience. I do plan on doing more than just the WP at this point

If you change teh Cam gear oil sprocket oil seal make sure ot use 3 5mm bolts to hold the cams in Place....ask me how I know this. And make sure you have the right pully and belt as todd said the "S" motors do have a wider belt and pulley. Also for my experience the criket tool will not work on the 87-up car with the auto tensioner. I was lucky adn I was working for Porsche at the time so I had accress to the 9201 tensioning tool. If you can get it, use it. otherwise it will be hard to tension the T-belt right.
