STARTER REMOVAL -HELP

I am replacing the starter in my 87 Iroc 350. Can't get it out from the car. Do I have to remove the bolts from the exhaust y-pipe and lower it to get the starter out from the bottom of the car? (hope not) I am all ears! THANKS JIM

Not necessary...

Point it nose down, rotate it so the solenoid is toward the front of the car.

Might help to take out the #6 & #8 spark plugs.
