It is a pain in the ***. I would do them when doing headers, if not leave it alone if it is not broken.

it's way easier with the headers off, but i got the drivers side done with the header on. all i took off was the altenator. still a major pain in the *** though, and breaking the bolts loose that go in to the block is a nightmare.
