arent you guys forgetting the exhaust manifold ??
make it easy on yourself...
get a repair manual if you dont know how to do it... it will save you a lot of headaches.

i had to take my buddies head off of his 99 gs and it was a bi*** and a half, nothing complicated just took longer than we would likt it too, cuz you gotta pretty much rip everything around it off too. and yeah get like a haynes manual for 20 bucks it'll save you so much time and it might actually come out right,lol

you dont need to take off the intake mani, that'd be a pain and you dont have to do it. the exhaust mani yes you need to take off. valve cover needs to come off, along with the belts... i'm not sure why you are taking it off, but i would suggest replacing the head gasket obviously, and maybe head studs, just for the heck of it lol

no motor mounts need to be taken of cause the only mounts that are there are on the block and the tranny, but you'll need to take off everything that i told you to take off before, and you need to replace the head bolts cause the stock ones are stretch bolts and are not reusable
