Easiest way remove the bolts? Any way you can do it.

i already have the valve cover and motor mount off but i cant get the bottom pulley off and do you have to remove the cams to get to the head bolts?

I wanna say when I did mine I had to loosen the bolt but not take it out all the way, then use a pulley puller to get it off. It was a pain in the @ss.

yea so far it has been a pain in the a$$ seeing as i cant find my puller and i gotta get it done asap

Perhaps you should be more organized and have better time management.

Do you have a service book in front of you so you know the torque specs of everything you are pulling off and where parts go? Only asking because you were asking if you need to take the cams out to get to the head studs.

If you can go to a parts store, some rent out puller kits. Probably your best option.
