upper intake removal 94 vulcan

[helpme]

How do you remove the upper intake manifold on a 94 3.0? Looks like the back two bolts are under the distributor. Thanks.

Is there an easier way of changing the driver's side valve cover gasket without removing the upper intake on an old '94 3.0?

I don't think so , but there should only be 6 (or so) small head bolts holding it down. very simple to remove.

There are 6 total four in the middle and one on each end I just remove one myself

It has to come off to get to valve cover wish Ford had a better design put that's how it is

Thanks all. I thought it had two bolts on the ends. But I now see it only has one. Looks like a piece of cake. Thanks again.

I think the 2.9 was the only OHV engine that Ford didn't do this to.

The 3.0, the 4.0, and the SBF engines are all the same, the intake hangs way out over a valve cover and has to be removed for access.

460 doesnt have the plenium over the valve cover either.

They tried but it was too far away!

Actually the 460 EFI plenium is kinda cool looking. I always thought the 2.9 had the sexyist plenium, but the 460 aint far behind.
460 plenium....

I tthink we all know what a 2.9 one looks like lol
