Welcome to the forum Mr. Clopek.
Intakes is not a bad job to get removed.
If You could do some test fitting and then get an AN swivel fitting that has the port with 1/8th inch pipe threads, then, screw jnto that port a barb fitting, run out a remote hose and install another barb fitting into...
I love it.
If I was there I’d get out my electronical etching device and start scratching them into the corncrete wall.
Then color um in wit duh pencil. I wonder if that was close to caveman language ? ? ? ? 😹😹😹
Once that slave is shoved to the BH, on the ones I worked on , there is no adjustment.
IIRC, there may have been a plug to inspect that the push rod engaged the bearing fork okay.
Leaving it hang pan side down and pulling the pan keeps residual oil in pan from leaking through the engine and creating a terrible bad mess.
No matter if the pan is drained, still plenty enough oil to make a lot bigger mess.
Seems that install a clear 1/4” fuel hose on the return system, fire it up and ready to roll. 😹😹😹😹
Get a cheap HF engine stand, hang it, dint roll it over, pan side down then Pull the pan and then pull the heads.

And when pulling GPs if there are any that seems difficult then stop, do not go any farther.
Order in that GP removal tool that Leroy makes and sells.
Every 6.2/6.5 owner should be equipped with one such tool.
I have always run AC Delco GPs even when I was meching for the DOT over here and have...
Thats the thing to do.
Just because the injectors are acting out dont mean that they are bad.
Pull those injectors and get them to a reliable shop, or, there is one member in here that does check, test and adjust injectors.
I for some reason cant remember His handle/name. Oh yeah...
Yeah, that would be the simplest.
I’m already a member in three social media sites and IDK how many groups.
Several Jesus type groups and several HD groups along with a couple or three old pickup truck groups.
I’m also a member in the gmsquarebody forum, the hdherd forum #hdherd and I am most...
Come to the conclusion that, its just the nature of the beast, or, pop the rocker covers, valve springs and install new valve guide seals.
The good ones, the posi seal units.
