I recently purchased Howell EFI with ebl and computer controlled distributor and an aluminum intake with gaskets. I’m hoping to start removing carb, intake, and other parts and pieces in prep for installing the new intake and efi this weekend. Does anyone have tips or advice for removing all of the parts and intake? I plan taking a lot of pics first. Does a guy just dive in ands start removing things one at a time? I plan on cleaning out any “cookies” that I find below the intake. The aluminum intake has no exhaust crossover, so I won’t have to worry about blocking that off…. I’ve got a leak in one exhaust manifold gasket so will tackle that as well… any words of wisdom or gotchas to look out for? This is for a 1975 455.
Thanks,
Ken

Unsure of what upgrades may have been done. I'm working on sorting that out in the coming months.
