Note to self.........When people tell you that a DYI is really tough then maybe you should listen to them.

I have started the header install. Getting the cats off was not bad. Heat sheilds were not bad. Passenger side LTH was not bad. Getting the Driver side header off is a beotch!

Just taking my time. Hopefully she will be back on the road next week.

yea headers on most modern cars so a real PITA now because engine bays are so much tighter than they used to be.

*redneck swag voice* when dad and i put LTH's on his 69 camaro, it took us about 45 mins with an air wrench. i just crawled up in the engine bay and he slid under the car on a creeper and we knocked it out, it was gravy... */redneck swag voice*

the ones for my truck are incredibly hard due to steering and brake hardware in the way. according to the instructions, the first step is to pull the motor... not kidding :\

Yeah, f*** that. Too much work for headers.

Update: Headers are on the car. Lost one of the header nuts somewhere in the engine bay. It was pretty late and I was exhausted so I gave up. Hopefully after a couple of days of rest it will show up. If not I guess I will be heading to the dealership to buy another one.

Good to see another fellow Clemson grad with a Black 370. Just got mine, and still missing SC. Keep up the good work Will.
