any tips on getting this off easily? We took off all the bolts except for the one hidden on the right side of the lower intake manifold, behind almost every component on that side of the engine. It looks like I will have to take off the power steering pump to get to that bolt. How do you guys do it?

i didnt have to pull the power steering pump to get mine off. I probably use a swival socket or something. There are two hidden bolts under the metal vacuum lines that run across the lower intake manifold. You have to take the upper plenum off to get the metal lines off in order to get acess to those two bolts.

yea i took off the ps pump for mine. what i did was just took off the whole PS bracket with the pump still in it. i think its like 3 bolts. the bottom one calls for a regular wrench instead of a socket.

oh and dont forget to undo the brace from the block to the manifold. i left mine off but keep it in the garage just incase i need to pull the motor out
