dlud: I pulled the transmission supports and lowered the engine a little at the front, supported from the top with an engine support bar and from the bottom with a floor jack. I didn't remove the exhaust manifolds and was able to do it by just dropping the engine and shifting it slightly while r & r. Replacement would be straightforward with the engine removed. I have removed engines before...but I was told that Indy's don't remove the engine to perform this service so I thought I would give it a go.
Also, the airbox was not in my way.
