remove the rocker covers, remove the rocker shaft assembles and pull out the push rods. mark the inlet and exhaust for each cylinder. cut the old tubes out with tinsnips, clean the area where the tubes seat. smear some sealant on the new tube ends and seals and slip them in. Do that 8 times, re fit the rocker shafts and covers. job done.
