LS1 header question on install
 

We are working on my brothers 98 firebird, getting the old manifolds off to install the long tubes. The tranny is already out due to needing a clutch, so that helps the ordeal. My question is this, do I need to remove anything on the passenger side to get the header off. It seems a little tight on that side with the coils. Has anyone done this and can give me a few tips. The driver side is done, this is passenger side only. Any help would be great.

Q

Nobody has ever done their own hearder???:confused:

A sheep hearder? Quinten.. come on

you shouldnt have to remove anything... ive seen some cars have to lift one side of the motor a tad.. i didnt have to on mine

OH CRAP. I forgot this was your forum. ;) Now its not like I havent done this before, but I am not use to these damn LS1's. I love my LT1 more and more as I work on this car:p Its just that the more I look at it, the more I dont see how my arm is going in that hole! Just wondered if anyone else took anything off. This isnt the type of F-body I usually work on. But if you say it comes out without removing the coils, I will trust ya. Looks like its time to get out the bandaids and bactene:D
