You add pictures by hitting the second button from the right on the comment tool bar.. Looks like a mountain with a sun in a yellow sky.

As for the VC, I just know it freaking sucks to work on vans.. Never done it myself though.

Vans suck, no two ways about it.
On the 6.0's we remove one engine mount and roll the engine to get to the valve covers. Maybe raise the motor and remove both engine mounts, then drop it back down.
3rd back on passenger side is right in line with bulkhead and you have to take injector out in pieces.
