Just the air tube from the air cleaner box to the throttle body, unclipped the spark plug leads from the 4 plastic holders on the tappet cover and then the 12 bolts on the actual inlet manifold. Oh, and the front bolt at the top shared the fastening for the front engine lift bracket with the thermostat housing rear bolt.
Both the head and inlet faces were very clean and the old gasket fell off in pieces, so I was fortunate. Two hours all up from getting the ramps out to packing them up.
Ratchet ring spanners and insensitivity to bleeding knuckles is required.
