Probably have to remove the starter and may have to jack up one side of the motor to get them installed. A little tricky but worth it. I hope you're getting a custom tune to make the most of those headers.

Congrats. They are great headers!! I love mine. You will have to remove the starter and thats the most difficult part of the job. I didn't have to jack my motor up any. The drivers side is a breeze. The passenger side will take quite a few hours.

You paid 1465 for Dynatech headers? Ooops. $859 at Summit Racing.

Other than that, enjoy your headers!

Sweet!
I recently did my header... plan 2 whole days to do it. Big time PITA! But worth it in the end. And yes, the sound is amazing, but I am was going for more power...
Will be taking it to the tracks to see what the difference is going to be this month.

Wow 2 days. That sucks! It took me about an hour and a half on the drivers side. The passenger side was closer to seven. Remove the starter and the trans dip stick (don't forget to cover the hole and go to it. There is one bolt on the starter that is a pain. You will need a 1/4 drive ext 6" and a 3". A deep well socket and standard. This will give you options as far as lengths go to get at it. Removing the front passenger tire is very worthwhile. You will also need a universial adapter for your 3/8 or 1/4 when it comes time to bolt the headers on.
