So....I need to removed the driver side valve cover and its obvioulsy a PITA, trying to do it without pulling the motor because its not an option at this point.

I've removed the bolts for the cover, i've pushed back most of the wiring harness and I've removed 4 bolts for the master cylinder - from the fire wall - which didnt really help a whole lot. I did get a little more room, but not enough. Still hits aginst the master cylinder and the brake booster (black soda can).

The valve cover is only haning in the far bottom corner by the master cylinder.

The clutch cable is still there, but its not hanging up because of it.

Any pointers? Am I missing something besides the four bolts to the master cylinder to get more room?

amnit:

Pull harder... No need to take all that of with stock covers. It will come off.
