Actually the thing I was thinking about was the clutch slave cylinder, not only getting it off, but how it would like the heater next to it. They are sufficiently reliable that I carry one .....
I made the exhaust in a way that I can easily unbolt sections of it to get to things. Believe it or not, as close as the starter is to the header pipe in the pic below, it can easily be removed without moving the pipe. The slave cylinder is a bit of a pain to get to, but I can.
JD, you just reminded me that I've been meaning to wrap the exhaust next to the slave to protect it a bit from the heat.
