You have to remove the carbs and intake manifolds.
It could be worse... you could have dual IDFs or DLRA which are larger and harder to install.
Welcome to the world of High Performance. :wink: |

| Just be sure to put some rags in the intake holes on the heads when putting the engine in the car. When crap falles in hose holes it makes life hell. When you go to install the intakes again dont forget to pull the rags back out of the heads as well. :wink: |
