cylinder removal question

[rdsarefun]

It's been a few years since I completely redid my 73 350 and cannot remember.  If you remove the gas tank, can you pull the cylinders off the stock studs or is their not enough clearance and the engine needs removed from frame?

they can be taken off in frame no problem.

Thanks Mark,  Appreciate the quick response and was dreading having to pull engine if I did not have to.
