Timing Belt Change DIY/Procedure?

Anybody have a DIY Procedure for changing the timing belt and water pump? Is there an online resource or can someone reccommend a good manual? Gonna knock this out with a friend this weekend.

there is a good diy in the gen3 garage- title iirc, was- 100k service completed. look for something like that- Southern was the author
Its a full days work and good idea to replace the tensioner pullies, thermostat, hoses, etc, and adjust the valves if needed

Here is the best link you will ever have for service on any car. It's what the service managers use at the dealerships to pull up part numbers and labor codes. I've been using it for all my cars. And best of all, it's free. Ready? You must use IE, not Mozilla.
