No. Never saw the need. It should work though.

What? Got me curious. You can't fit the manifolds on? What's in the way?
My motor mounts are shot and I need to move the engine a bit with a big bar to remove my E-fan. If your manifold won't fit..you might look at the mounts. Just put a block under the pan and a jack it up a tad for now. But check the mounts.
MAYBE.

looks like it would be easier to install with the 4 bottom bolts just started in the head. looks like a pita tring to start those bolts with the intake manifold in place. i guess ill leave the dowls as is. thanks for the imput.
