380 SL intake manifold

I will remove the left hand side head, do I need to remove the intake manifold or does the head have enough clearance to come out by removing the bolts from both manifolds?

You will need to remove the intake. Each head gasket (sold individually) will come with a full set of intake gaskets.

Be careful removing the intake bolts, they have a tendency to have the hex heads strip out. Avoid using an impact wrench to remove them as they will only make the problem worse.
