Pretty easy, once you actually burrow down to the runners-- couple bolts for
each and they're loose. You gotta remove the fuel injectors, throttle, and
AFM first though. As far as parts you might want to not re-use, all I can
think of is maybe you'd want to replace the injector O-rings, and perhaps
the short hose bits that connect the runners to the air plenum (if you think
yours look too dry).
