V6 water pump replacement steps?

I have searched the net and the forum and unable to find a step by step how to on replacing the water pump on my 2010 V6 Camaro. I have the parts needed for the swap and pretty good at doing certain things when it comes to maintenance and repair. Can anyone lead me in the right direction. It seems all the youtube videos out there mostly show how to on the V8 equipped Camaro and the ones that do the V6 are crappy and the poster keeps jumping all over the place with horrible music in the background during the vids. Thanks in advance!

I take it you don't have a repair manual handy? I can shoot you some screenshots of the pages if you can't find anything online by Sunday. Hit me up as a reminder if it gets to that point.

Thank you! I’m hoping to work on the car today.

The manual calls for 106 INCH pounds for all water pump and pulley bolts so go easy on them.

Thank you! After reading the instructions it looks like the belt tensioner needs to be removed as well?

Only the non-s/c v8s should need the tensioner pulley removed. V6 just take the pulley off and get to the pump. Did you have success today with it?

No not yet. The wife came home early and some things came up. Going to tackle it tomorrow and finish it once and for all.
