7mgte Chiller Plate

[rap2chin]

Is there a way to remove the chiller/Egr plate off the back of the head without removing it? And if yes what tools do I need?

Flex head wratchet, low profile. Move things out of the way. Have patience.

haha saw someone on facebook ask this same question

Would loosening the motor mounts, removing the trans crossmember, and jacking up the tailshaft until it hits the tunnel help a little? I'm not sure how much that would tilt the engine forward, but it probably can give you a little more room.

Every little bit helps, and it's exactly what I did

How did it go? Were you able to get it off without tilting the engine forward?
