Well it is really hard for me to read your post but I think you're asking about the intake manifold removal?

If so, disconnect the injector pigtails, and disconnect the fuel line coming into the fuel rail. Leaving the fuel rail in place and not disturbing the injectors. It will all lift off as an assembly with the intake.

The electrical connectors on the injectors can be a little tricky and the quick connect on the fuel line needs the right tool to do the job. But I don't think it's a tough job at all. I can't quote you a time frame but it doesn't take long at all to pull one off.

funny i thought guys were telling me i had to take the fuel rail off, but i dont the more i look at it its jes some simple disconnnects and rememebering where it all goes back [ tagging helps]

CLEANING THE PORTS AND AROUND THEM AND NOT GETTING ANY GUNK DOWN IN THE ENGINE WOULD JES BE MY LUCK

Yeah just take your time, vacuum everything around the intake before you pull it and after you pull it. Stick some rags or paper towels or tape off the intake ports as soon as you can. Nothing sucks more than dropping **** down the intake runners and into the cylinder. That would make an easy job, not so easy.
