If your 89 was a non-turbo, it would have been easier!

Those non-turbo intakes just come right off, zip, zip, zip. Don't know if it's possible, but can one leave the intake on the head and remove it from the head on the bench, removing the head/intake as an assembly? That's probably more weight than one person can reasonably handle to lift off though. Ditto reassembling that way.
