Removing the Intake
For those of you who have or know, i was wondering how much of a PITA it is to pull the intake manifold off? what all has to be removed other than the obvious...fuel rail, injectors, throttle body? Also will i need to replace a seal? thanks guys

I would also like to know what exactly needs to be done. Mine badly needs to be cleaned.

Re: Removing the Intake
Look on my Tech Page for the cam removal "How To". It shows how to remove the intake. It's not that hard. You will need new gaskets. The fuel rail is a little different on a 1993.

Re: Removing the Intake
its reallly not that big of a deal....it is very intimidating at first, but as long as you have the simple tools you will be fine....

Re: Removing the Intake
Just make sure you seal the front and back gaskets good. It shows you on Shoebox's website. I have pulled mine off about 7 or 8 times.. for different reasons and out of those about 3 have leaked. youd think id get the hang of it.:D. I used ultra grey once and it leaked aswell as ultra black, now I use ultra copper and havent have a problem. Make sure you load it up and make an even bead accross both seals and in the corners of the head and block.

Re: Removing the Intake
I used some red high temp gasket seal and did the markings like shoebox describes on his site. No problems yet.
