v6 exhaust manifold removal

just wondering if anyone has ever had any problem removing the exhaust manifold off of their v6 engine. I have an 89 rs that i want to put headers on in the future and was just curious. Someone once mentioned to me that it is difficult because the bolts rust and corrode and you have to actually drill the bolts so they come out.

thanks,

Dave marsh

its basically just like V8 manifolds, exept there are 2 less bolts and alot more room.

On mine, (both the passenger side and drivers side) the heads to the 2 bolts on the long runner were snapped off, thus i only had to remove 4 bolts per manifold

i just used vise grips to get them out when i got the heads off the engine.
