Removing fuel injection top

[kavadarci]

Hi,
This winter I plan to get to the triangle of death and at the same time replace the intake sleeves.
Does anyone have instructions how to remove the top and get to the back?

Thank you.

Thank you.

What year? I have a '77 and removed the whole intake by doing a partial engine drop; that gives you about 6" of additional clearance to pull it out as a unit. There is a tech article on how to do the drop- see the header at the top of web page for link. Basically you take out the tapered screw from the transmission shaft to linkage in the tunnel behind the seats, then position a jack under the engine, remove the engine mount bolts and slowly lower engine.
