Blake, It's not that hard to get the carbs off, really. Take the front off
first then the back. If your hand cramps, take a break. The REALLY hard part
is the inside/lower/aft manifold nut. No Tricks, just slow patient, 1/4
turn, turn the wrench over, 1/4 turn, turn the wrench over, again and again
and again.

Hi gang;

Does anyone have advise for pulling the carbs off my 69 2000?  The exhaust
manifold is "shot" so  I've purchased a header from Fairlady products and
I'm
ready to replace it.  I am assuming that the carbs come off the intake
manifold, followed by the  heat shield, then the manifolds from the head.  A
couple of those 8 carburetor bolts look a bit difficult to get to.  Any
advise
appreciated.
