Took a trip to the closest Boneyard.

Do yourself a favor and take the coolant tube off.  The coolant tube has one nut holding it down.  Under that nut once the tube is off is a stud with another nut on it.

Remove the 4 8mm (head size) bolts that hold the fuel rail to the intake.  Use a prybar or a big screw driver to pop the rail off the injectors. 

PS. Buy new injector O rings when you put this together.  Fuel leaks suck.

ill remember that lol. I have a new fuel rail and injectors already fitted onto the gt40 so ill see how that goes... Got it allll apart... and by the way no one told me there was TWO bolts in the middles instead of going with the pattern of one bolt in the middle of every injector.... i found them and it popped right off haha. So its all broke down now im gunna borrow a buddy's engine stand or just buy one from someone cuz the new ones are too expensive and then start on the bottom side... wish me luck lol I dont even think i need to take this thing apart honestly it all looks so good! the cylinders are smooth....oil was old but clean, the filter that prolly hadnt been changed for fifteen years didnt have shavings in it or anything...
