HELP! Header Install

All,

I hope you can help. I'm in the middle of my MAC header install on my 93. I can't seem to get the rear-most manifold bolt off because the EGR hose is in the way. I can't break that loose either. Anyone have any tricks for this bolt?

Thanks,
Dave

there really is no trick. Getting the manifolds off is just plain difficult. But once you have them off you will amazed at how easy the MAC's go on

take the EGR tube off at the intake manifold instead, 2, 1/2" nuts and it'll slide right off the back

I believe his problem is that the EGR tube is in the way of the last bolt of the manifold.

You do know that you can just bend the tube. Just grab it and tug...
