1966 Barracuda "car ****"

While putting the engine back into the bay, we forgot about the drivers side exhaust manifold.
There is just no space between the wall an block to put that thing through. Instead of manipulating the engine again, I wanted to move the steering shaft backwards, to get enough space for the manifold to slip through.

Thanks to FABO-Member recommendations it was simple to get that exhaust manifold in place at least.

The roll pin was easy to remove. Just wacked it out with a iron rod and hammer. It doesn't matter what side you start. The pin is straight. Did mark the spline position with a white marker, before removing the bracket of the steering column. It slid out like butter. Thanks a lot.
