When I did this I took off everything up to the throttle body, unbolted the throttle cable assembly and put it to one side and the same with the throttle body itself. I was able to remove the valve cover bolts and take them off.

There are a few brackets you also need to remove to get to them, also the spark plug leads may have a clip on one of the valve covers just move everything aside really.
 
thanks bro I'll try that tomorrow, ill let you know how it goes

I just took out the six bolts that held the y pipe on, disconnected the two coolant lines to the throttle body, 3 vacuum lines, throttle cables (I can't remember if there's a fancy linkage like there is on the GTE, but if there is, that too) spark plug wires, and then have at the valve covers

If its a GE, see above.
If its a GTE, you have to take the cover/coil packs off, throttle linkage, and undo the clamps then remove the 3000 pipe.
