Intake manifold removal

[Headrc]

Does anyone know of a tutorial on removing the intake manifold on a Volvo XC70? I need to do this to get at the alternator. Thanks

Thanks, yes I saw this and have actually been in contact with the author of it. However, it really does not include the beginning process of how he got that manifold off. Thanks for answering though.
