I am trying to get the intake manifold off because there is coolant leaking between the head and i/t manifold. I think I have all the electrcal, and bolts off, but it wont budge. Do I have to take off the distributer too? And how many bolts hold that i/t manifold on?

You will have to remove the distributor, make sure all the bolts are out of the manifold, and take a prybar you will see on cylinder one there is it a casting area where you can put a prybar and break the manifold loose, from so much heat they are usually pretty tight to get off.
