Default Using Sir Tools Engine Yoke with Stock Exhaust on '86 930

I've got a stock 86 930 engine that needs to get on the engine stand for valve adjustment, leak mitigation and the like. I've done plenty of work on modified 930s in the past and had no issues using SIR Tools engine yokes. But on this engine all the stock exhaust is in place and the yoke interferes with the exhaust and won't mount flush to the engine case. I wasn't planning on removing the exhaust for this effort, so figured I would see if anyone else has run into this same issue. I don't want to grind on the yoke if I can avoid it. I guess I am going to be wearing out some dremel cutting wheels on the exhaust bolts...


Engine Yoke area of interference

Bottom right of the photo is the area with the least interference. Yes, this engine has the classic oil idiot light sending unit leak!
