lol. Rube Goldberg would be proud.

So far haven’t gotten past getting the middle exhaust to the header bolts out. Pretty rusty. Only using a 1/2 in ratchet but guess I need to put more PB Blaster on and pull out my shop air and impact wrench.

So I noticed there is a small hatch in the plate, are you saying I might could get some engine lift with a jack through that space?

I’m going to leave the intake laying in the engine bay. Too much aggravation getting the brake vaccum line out and the fuel line is hard to get to.

Thanks for the great pics. Yankee engenuity at its finest. Musta been beer involved.
