How do you get this out?

[red01maro]

Im trying to get the right valve cover off and the brackett used for engine installation at the rear of the right valve cover is in the way of one of the valve cover bolts. Can you get the bolt out without taking off the brackett and if you cant then how do you get the brackett off, I know there is one bolt on the back side of it but there is no room to get it out either from the top or bottom. Any ideas?

Bracket's gotta come off. Use a box or open end wrench to get the 2 bolts that hold the bracket on. It's a real pain in the *** to do, though. Took me a while to get it, and I had my upper and lower intake off so I had more room.

thanks, looks like Ill work on getting the intake off for now then. It has to come off for this project anyway. Back to work.
