Hey Asiansensation........so the banjo bolts connect to the back of each head. In other words.....how you got them in the pic. The heads on the top would be your 2,4,6,8 with 2 being the most left right?

yeah, mine are coming off tomorrow, and I'm trying to figure out how to get those banjo bolts off while the are still on the car. I'm replacing them with a set of stock ported and polished, intake port matched heads. The intake is also ported. Plus it has new valves and upgraded springs. I'm so excited, I just don't want to break that steam pipe. Got any ideas?

Try using a six point 15mm socket (if you have room) or a six point boxed end wrench (yeah, they make them). Keep the tool on straight and square so you don't strip the head. If you mess things up, just cut the tube and buy a new set of tubing and bolts. They are not that expensive. Part numbers on my site.

You could always rig up some nice fittings and some braided hose if you want to get creative on the re-install.

I guess there will be no more questions about the V6 car, eh?

O definitely not. The V6 is finally sold. I knew if I waited on it and good opportunity would come up. I sold it for $1200 plus ported and polished heads, with an port matched intake. Plus roller rockers and hardened pushrods. I plan after the cam, heads, intake and headers to be pushing close to 400hp. I may be a little off, but it sure will be an improvement. I also plan on removing all the emissions stuff as well. There is so much more room with that stuff out
