Replacing valve cover gaskets

[bigdaddy1427]

New to the turbo Buick. I am going to change valve cover gaskets. I was just wondering if the one on the passenger side comes off easy, or do I have to jack the engine up to get clearance around the AC unit?
They are the tall valve covers, and it looks a little tight around there.
I did a search on this, and couldn't find any answers.
Thanks for the help.

It's tight but it will come out, I moved the black harness out of the way, pull it up out of your way and you should have enough room to wiggle the valve cover up and out, thats how I did it!

If I bump the motor I can get the rockers to move and give enuff clearance to wiggle the cover out. Its a PITA
