Pacesetter Install Iput

Well Just to let you all know , The installation was not bad at all . I was sweating it because I couldnt find a good article on the install process for these headers . It was fairly simple .
remove Manifolds , starter , altenator and bolt thrue motor mount " Drivers side "...Raise engine up as needed to fit headers in " Drivers side only " . They will go in with ease . My headers mated up with no problem at all on either sides .

Glad to hear everything went well. What gasket/bolts did you use? Also what kind of exhaust setup are you going with?

TSP catback sounds so badass with these headers and cam . Thats what I have now . I love it . I used the stock gaskets " they gave me new ones " And I used the new bolts " they gave me new bolts also "

wow, i cant believe how these installs differ from car to car. Some guys take the starter off, some dont. Some guys have a real pain on the drivers side some on the passenger yada yada yada.

One question for ya, hows the clearance on yours to the streering shaft?

There wasnt any..thats why you have to take the motor mount loose . Without taking the mount loose , I would never have got the headers in . Whoever the guys where that beat back the fire wall and ground the Shaft where not thinking when they did that stuff .It was cake once the motor was raised up a little . They went right in ..No problems . Taking the starter off is so easy . It takes less then 3 minutes and goes back in just as easy . WHoever does not take this stuff off is looking for the lazy way in ..Wich....actually takes more work and time in the end .

Takes 2 minutes to remove the steering shaft. I dont see why it's an issue at all
