[Tigers] Is it possible to change the intake manifold with the engine in the Tiger?

[Tom Witt]

Don't see why not. The distributor will need to come out for forward 
movement. And depending on the valve cover overhang at least one cover 
(recommend the passenger side because of its more forward placement) 
might have to come off. A few of the rear bolts may be somewhat 
difficult being under the firewall. Apparently that guy at Rootes that 
swung that big ole sledge hammer at the firewall just didn't hit it hard 
enough. :-D (just kidding of course)
