Sorry Oldskool, have trouble with the Quote button. Yes, the 3 tubes look much more manageable. Can I install them without lifting the engine? Thanks
Yes. I removed them from my '68 with the engine bolted to the mounts, and I installed them in my '80 Bird with the engine bolted to the mounts.
Same goes for the 35270 4-tubes. Engine does not have to be raised.
You just have to have it jacked up high enuff off the floor, since they must be stabbed from the bottom. I did it with just a floor jack & jack stands.
And obviously, the starter will have to be off, and the oil filter & mount will have to be off, on the other side.
You can get to some of the bolts from the bottom & some from the top. Some with a rachet/extension/socket, and some with an open end/box end wrench.
At the suggestion of some on some of the Pontiac forums, I made some stands out of wood, to put under the front tires. So, I replaced the jack stands with the wooden stands. I think some call 'em "cribs".
