Intake runner removal problem

Alright, I'm trying to remove my passenger side intake runners. I've removed all 10 bolts and nothing else is holding it down. It seems the fuel rail is in the way and maybe something else, I can't really see this something else. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this off without removing the fuel rail? Because that seems like too much of a hassel.

Not remembering exactly how many bolts there are off the top of my head....Did you get the two bolts that hold the runners from the inside??

There is one bolt for each runner on the inside, there a PITA to get to. Once you have them out the runners will come out, just takes a little bit of tilting and pulling.

I just loosen the 4 fuel rail bolts a bit and that will allow you to remove the runner.Dont forget to put thr runner back under the fuel rail before you tighten the rail down.
