i think we have to pull the motor to get them in right? i know with my 96 we did. are you gonna do it at the hobby shop? they will ahve everything you need. let me know a time and place, i might be able to help.
You do not have to pull the engine. You do however have to drop the K-member which is not that hard. It will require a front end alignment but other than that it is feasble to get it done in one day.
When do you plan on doing this?
I just put mine on last month. You have to take the motor mounts off and jack the engine up but you DO NOT have to pull the motor out for this. I didn't drop the K-member either. It does take time to do the install exspecially if you do it by your self. I would help but I'm heading to Armona.
Ok I just thought about my post. You do not have to drop the K-member all the way....just lower it and raise the engine like posted above. I find it to be easier that way.
WEll If they get here Today or Sat I plan on getting right on it if not I may skip the event sunday and do it then. Well as far as I know all you have to do is loosen the moter mounts and jack up one side of block. I am ready if you guys are..Sam and Beejay I could use your help if your free this weekend
Sorry man. I am going camping this week end. We already have the reservations and everything.

Did ya ask your wife for permission to do that too?????? Just checkin cause i am sure she is going to take it out of your allowance. LMAO J/K. Where ya going I wanna watch. Better yet what time? I leave around 11 or so to go camping.
I havent got them yet. I may have to do it one night after work next week. Or possibly Sunday. I like to Dyno with you BeeJay I want to see my power gains from Headers I may run some oct booster or possibly race fuel as well
Headers should be here Monday. I think Iwill start install after work if I can get help. The only thing is I dont have trans jack. I have a 3 ton and jack stands though. Just think it would be better at house that way I dont have to worry about the hobby shop closing

hobby shop is closed on monday anyway. this week might be hard for me. the weekend would be better. let me know when you want to dyno, i might be able to get you a good deal. i already ran yesterday tho. and then spanked a G35 that put down more power than me. lol

Yeah I want to do my headers but it seems like too much trouble for very little gain
Yep that is what I thought. max HP from LT Headers is what 3-5 HP? What will that give you on the track? Mentally you will feel the difference. Only because you know it is stronger now. You will also swear it pulls harder down the track......Well whatever. It seems like alot of trouble as Roush said.
I am guessing so correct me if I am wrong.

if you own a 3.8l or a 5.0 they help alot but us modular 4.6l dont gain much from it like gibs said so i am debating very hard to do it or not all that we really gain is a better beefier sound
