First you start by taking the air filter off. Then unbolt the carb itself. Then you will see eight bolts that are bolting down the valve covers, remove those and next the covers themselves. This will enable you to see the bolts easier. Around the outer edge of the intake manifold you will see 3/4'', I believe, bolts. Loosen all of those and remove them. After that remove all hoses from the intake manifold. The manifold should now come right off. You might need to wiggle it a bit to loosen it but it will come free. And that's it. Be sure that upon removal of the old gasket you take a razor blade and scrape off all the old gunk. This will make for a better seal. Be sure not to drop anything into the block while you have the manifold off.
