autoX · 01-31-2001, 03:39 PM

I have an intake leak and need to replace the gaskets on my carburated '85. My question is, what needs to be romoved to put new gaskets on the intake manifold? I realize I have to unhook quite a bit of vacuum lines, but what about Valve-covers? distributer?
Just wondering what it is going to take to fix. Any hints/tips?
Thanks all!
