Exact Steps for Intake Manifold Removal?? Just wondering if there is a complete list of steps for removing an intake manifold from a '01 Camaro SS LS1?? I'm guessing the last 2 bolts next to the firewall will be the most difficult to remove. Also, I plan to have the stock manifold sent to Jet-Hot to be coated, good or bad idea?? Thanks for the help.... 
That guide is good, but I believe Luna also wrote a guide on this board for it.
Note, that you have an almost 90% chance of breaking the Oil Pressure Sending Unit.
ls1howto.com says to disconnect the brakebooster hose (which is correct) but depending how it's snaked around behind the manifold, you still may have no clearance to pull the manifold out slightly before disconnecting the hoses/sensors.
I'd try to just buy one before doing the swap, it'll save you a lot of time trying to find one locally when you do break it.
