   because the bolts my be a little tight and rusty.
   
   ive just taken my ashley comp mainfold of and all i used was a 13mm socket for the 8 manifold bolts, a 17mm socket for the gear box bracket, then a big adj for the lambor sensor and lastley a couple of 10mm spaners for the manifold to decat bolts.
   
   easy

   they can be a bit of an arse to get on and off because of the postion etc also the bolts can become seized occasionally so becarefull not to sheer them off in the cylinder head. other than that its a pretty straight forward job, just take your time.
