Hey LScowboyLS that's a great video!
Just today I decided that I will do the whole shebang: the harmonic balancer, timing belt, water pump, serpentine belt, fan bracket, distributors and rotors, and even spark plugs and wires. It makes sense since it all requires same parts to be taken off. I just need to save up some money for it all, as I plan on using OEM parts (or made by those who make OEM as per cowboy's list).

Here is another question - would it be easier to change the engine mounts at this time too? Will it be easier to put in the dreaded driver's side engine mount with half the engine torn apart for the timing belt change?

Big thank you to everyone else for chipping in with replies, I really appreciate it!

I don't think doing the engine mounts during a timing belt change is any real advantage, besides, if you keep expanding the project too large, it can become overwhelming
