How hard is it to change the tappets on the calibra turbo lump when it's in a nova? What are the main things i should look out for and how much am i looking to pay for the parts?

Obviously i need 16 tappets (only 1 or two gone but you have to change them all dont you?), rocker cover gasket, cambelt?????

How easy is the cam belt to change? i mean getting the cover off with so little space.

Any hint you can give me will be appreciated. I think the procedure is gunna be the same as the standard valver.


Rgds,
Neil

oil flush and refill first

It's full at the moment, so would i drain that out, flush it (how much oil, how many time?), replace the filter and refil???
