Ok, I have an automatic and while looking at it from underneath i notice that the fill tube for the transmission is in the way of the EGR tube that hooks up to the passenger manifold. So how do i go about removing the manifold?

Should i just go ahead and begin removing the manifold bolts and hopefully it will free up some slack or can i just unbolt the EGR pipe from the rear of the manifold and pull the manifold and EGR tube out as a whole?

Thanks

 

Anyone..

 

you can pull it out as a whole. However, what headers are you planning on running??

 

As of right now i am just removing them so that i can drill out the bolts because they are rusted.

But I will be ordering in some Headers soon anyways. Any suggestions?

 

I didn't have to remove mine to get that manifold out.

 

The EGR Tube? On my manifold the EGR tube is hooked up directly to the manifold. Looks like a pain in the A$$...

 

Tranny fluid tube. I unbolted the EGR tube at the manifold and took the manifold out. It also bolts up to the back of the intake with 2 nuts holding it on.

 

When getting headers get a 1 3/4 inch primary tubes. There are a few out there that have 1 5/8, dont get those. More power can be seen with the 1 3/4. I think SLP has the cheapest costing 1 3/4 inch headers, but spark plug access is kind of hard with those. There are other brands costing more that are better. I live with the hard to reach plug access.

 

How do i remove the Transmission fill tube?
