Take pictures, I'm sure plenty of us know how to do it but for the newbies, I'm sure you can help them out with pictures and instructions.

If you still have a clutch fan that might be a pain to take off. I remember it sucked when I took it off for my efan install. The water pump should be a pretty straight forward deal.

I know yours is a tbi but here are the instructions from alldatadiy for a 98 vortec truck, should be similar:

I read the thread. When you are gonna do the Write up you can make a new thread so it doesn't have all the questions and links in it. Just keping the tech sections cleaned up with Tech Articles and not threads about how to do something.

Also be carefull when you are putting the new pump on. Alot of people have had the bolts break off when they were putting it back on. Its not fun when that happens.
