naichuff Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Yes It is a tight fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasgasstu Posted April 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 Do you have to take the front engine bolts out? The head nuts are the long type which I assume makes the studs shorter, so should give a little more clearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucey Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 I’ve always taken the engine out as it doesn’t take that long. I also put an access hole and made a cover in the head where the top of the pushrods are to help reassembly. Use elastic bands to hold rockers up on assembly.

bigcity Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 I've taken mine off twice recently with no issue, however, you might want to take the rocker arm covers off first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
