Header install HELP

I can not fit my lt's headers in. I dont know. i removed the starter and alt and exhaust shield. The egr is hitting. also how do you disconnect the steering linkage? Please help.

what kind of car do you have? what brand of headers do you have? need some more info to help you out

97 z with lt pacesetter emission headers

I thought I read in one of your old posts that you had a 97. If that is the case, remove the passenger side valve cover and that should give you just enough clearance to snake that header in thru the top. As for the steering linkage, its a matter of removing the bolt and pulling it up and off.

which bolt the one when i look straight down at, not in the closed case further down

Do i knock it off the bar then

honestly, i did it a different way that worked too. there are a number of ways to do it. i loosened up the motor mounts one side at a time and tilted the engine to fit the headers in. it was easy but i have never tried the other ways.

Sorry, I should have pluraled that. I took off both the top bolt and the bottom bolt and then slide the linkage off.

removed valve cover. still hitting on lower a arm . starting to get pissed

tilt the engine

I had to play around with the angles, it took awhile. The passenger side is a PITA.

so what do i have to do to jack my motor up?

Unbolt a motor mount to tilt one side.
