With the heads and intake off they will drop right in.
Some people have no problem with them and others can`t get them to work at all. Who know`s, they might go in easily for you with the heads on.
I don`t know if there is a difference in headers coming out of jet-hot or a difference in cars?

hey jackass, the headers bolt to the heads, so you can only put them in with the heads on the car.
and uh ya,,they will go in easily with the heads on..lol

Hey jackass, you could always set the headers in, then bolt the heads on, then bolt the the headers to the heads
You didn`t even install them yourself, so STFU

What is so hard to understand about setting the headers in, setting the heads on the motor, bolting on the heads and then bolting the headers to the heads.
Have you ever done any work on a car?

Its very ****ing easy man, you just put the headers in the car, and bolt the heads down, how is that a chore? I only have my engine down to the block, but what would I know?

ok, i seriously doubt there is room to hold the head on place, and get your hands and a rachet or wrench down there, with the headers in their also....there isn't even room to have your had on the outside of the headers w/o bolts and wrenches,,,when everyting is together...lol

Your right, I have only been working and racing cars for the past 20 years, I have no idea what I`m talking about.
Have you ever even had a head off your car?

I really don't give a **** how much you doubt it and all... I got the stock manifolds off and rested them there, then I unbolted the heads... there is plenty of room, especially with the headers.

Ever take the heads off your car? I'm no expert, its my first time, but there is room.
