Message	I did this last month with manifold on, my tip would be. 1. Remove/disconnect any electrical wires that may be in your way 2. Don't waste time trying to get the old hoses out in one piece, cut them up into pieces. 3. Use lube to install 4. Make sure to orient the hoses in the correct position because of the amount of space to try and rotate once installed. The only PITA part that I ran into was the OEM clamps wouldn't open wide enough to clear the rib portion of the heater sore inlet/outlet pipes. A lot of struggling because of the space to work with. I had to basically remove the bolts for the clamps(magnet for the little washer because it will fall off) and press both ends of the clamp together and pull/twist the hose off.
