Yep. I remember laying under the passenger side with drop light angled just right ('74 Hardtop Camper) and trying to get that f---ing oval copper thing to sit just right on top of the manifold or if your luck it'll stay up in the head port. All the while crud is trying to get in your eyes, nose and mouth. While we're under there, let's not forget that when you removed the manifold nuts, at least one half of the studs must come out with the nut. :(

Oh yeah... Lot's-o-fun tryin' to get that sucker out. Oh... Fuck it!!
