well in the manual it actually says to remove the cams to get to the head bolts but i didn't take mine out and it worked out just fine. yes you can leave the intake manifold on while you remove it. i took my header off for simplicity reasons. you'll need a manual or somebody on here to run you through the tightening sequence.

there are plenty of write-ups on how to do the tightening. We have one in the FAQ section
