Well yea sorta , but trust me pull the dist. and the intake . I have worked on many F E block engines . Yes we use to SNEAK one head off with out pulling the manifold but never both heads . So you pull the dist. out and a little trick here point the rotor forward and use a center punch on the dist. base and on the manifold . When you pull the dist. up it will turn and watch how much it turns so you can set it close when going back together as it must drop down over the oil pump drive shaft as the oil pump is driven off the dist. gear off the cam. I can tell you that hunk of cast iron they call and intake is HEAVY , somewhere in my old Ford special tools i have two TEE handles that you screw into the bolt holes on the top and it makes it way easier to handle when removing and going back on as the going back on is critical as you have the two gakts that seal the intake to the block and you do not want o be sliding the manifold around getting it lined up as 99 chances out of a 100 the back one will push out of in and you will not notice till ya have oil streaming down the back of the engine , use 3 H permitx in each corner where the intake gskts meet the cork or rubber . I prefer the cork to the rubber as you can use copper coat to stick the cork where the rubber will slide on ya . . torque the heads in three steps then get it running and to operating temp and retorque . Use a bottoming tap to clean the head bolt holes out then use either , brake clean, lacquer thinner to clean and and use compressed air to blow dry . C;ean the head bo;ts and chase the threads and use a ;ight coat of white grease on the threads when going together.. Now don't ask me the timing spec's as it has been tomany years and there are way tomany spec's floating in the cobwebs . But 5 Degree's BTDC will get her running and be close.
