So now the manifolds air pump and everything is out! This project has gone pretty good so far just time consuming and a lot of trying to figure out how the feck to get at most of the bolts lol. The manifold bolts came out no problem almost like they were already loose lol. So far I must say the biggest pain in the ass so far for some reason was getting the oil dipstick out! Jesus of all the shit to be challenging, I got the drivers side manifold off and the passengers side one unbolted and ready to get out but the dipstick tube is there in the way of pulling it out. I tested putting in the drivers side header and itll be a piece of cake just gotta drain the oil and take the filter off. wondering how the hell im gonna do it tho if I should put the plugs in first so I don't gotta try to put them in after the headers are in or will they get in the way of the header install if I put the plugs in first...

Anyways! Now I just gotta clean up the motor and trans a bit of that gunky oil shit from the rear intake manifold leak and then get everything ready for the headers to go in. Then after they're in drop it back down off the ramps and do the intake manifold. Next post will be pics of the progress lol.
