You have to pull the plenum off and loosen the bolts to the runners. I believe the passenger side runner can be pulled out with out removing the fuel rails but I know that for the driver side runners you have to pull the fuel rails off of the intake base.

I've been switching between the SLP's and the stock one's since 2002.My best run was with the stock runners but I've ran more 13.9's with the SLP's.
