This is REALLY EMBARASSING!
I am in the process replacing the tuned headers and Weber carb/manifold with
original stock manifolds (Oregon = emissions testing). So, I came to the
part where you put the nuts and clamps on the two bottom studs that hold
both manifolds to the head, and well, I could get them started with my
fingers but could not get any tool I had in there to tighten them. The
"embarrassing" part is that I previously told someone on this list that
doing this was a "piece of cake". However, in thinking back it was the NEW
headers and intake manifold that I found to be really easy to put on and
take off and not the stock ones! It has been about 15 years since I did
this with the stock parts and apparently I forgot how I did it! I do know
that the cylinder head DID NOT have to be removed.
So, if anyone out there has a helpful hint on which type or shape of a 9/16
inch wrench to use I would greatly appreciate it. I've tried a socket
wrench with a straight extension, a flat end wrench, and a box wrench with
no success.
Thanks.
Reid
