Cam Cover Removal Question - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Shizap · 04-14-2021

Hello,
I am planning on removing my cam covers because they are leaking. The factory service manual says to drain the coolant so the coolant outlet pipes above the covers can be moved out of the way. Is this a requirement? It seems like I have enough room to take off the cam covers without moving these which would mean I don't have to mess with the coolant. Am I missing something? I am not pulling the plenum, only the cam covers. I also have the headers offs and the engine tilted if that changes anything.
Thanks,
Scott
