does anyone know of all the tools I would need to do the 4ag to 4agze swap? I would really like to be able to take the 4ag out in a day or two. that is why I'm asking, I'm trying to get everything setup and prepped before I start so I won't have to be forced to stop halfway through to go pick up a tool. thanks

a full set of metric sockets (you will use 10, 12, 14, and 17 the most... but will need obscure ones)
sockets + drivers in 1/2" and 3/8"
two or three extentions each
medium + large flat screwdrivers
medium phillip's screwdriver
needle nose pliers and regular pliers
vice grips
other stuff:
engine hoist, cart to put engines on and roll under the car, ALL NEW HOSES, clamps, lighting (you'll probably be doing this at night too...)
now you might not NEED all of this stuff... but using it will make the swap easier.
you'll also need to rewire some stuff, so a soldiering iron, soldier, shrinkwrap and wiring tape.
