Plugs are no problem - they come over the top of the manifold. But yeah, a leaking valve cover would be a nightmare. I am surprised on how much space is between the motor and firewall, I think I could get to the manifold bots from underneath pretty easily- or at least easier then on my 185.

QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 15, 2005 - 8:57 PM) looking at those pics, do you have to take off the intake manifold off to get to the spark plugs or to change the valve cover gasket? [right][snapback]312788[/snapback][/right] I know for a fact that u dont have to remove the intake manifold if you want to change the spark plugs. The gasket is a whole different story! -------------------- JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!
