Removing the intake manifold for cleaning (1 Viewer)

"...I did myself a big favor & cut the casting that the entire wiring loom runs thru & smoothed both runner tubes..."

Photo?

Here’s mine, I did it with the lower intake still attached to the head. I loosened it and put a plate of SS behind to protect the head while I used a pneumatic body saw to cut it.

Anyone have a BEFORE photo, stock? I mean, aside from the battle scars, you ALMOST can't see where it was. Pretty smooth smoothing...

Bingo.
I took a little more metal, but we got the same end result.

i did the same mod as BJ40 and linus,also took off and blocked off the EGR at the head,no more pipe sticking up.
i was alot more confident putting the harness back together being able to see everything.
