Engine Cooling Shroud

We are just finishing off a top end rebuild of a 3.2. Has anyone had trouble fitting the engine cooling shroud over the fuel injection manifold?

Thank you,
Bill

Perhaps I am misunderstanding your question, but doesn't the shroud go on first (I know it does on the 3.3 turbo engines, and based upon pics I just looked at, seems that it would have to on a 3.2 as well)?

Indeed. Cooling shrouds and socks first.

too funny.

Seriously, I also had some minor alignment issues on the 3.2 shroud but it seemed to sort itself out once the manifold got torqued down.
