I'm an idiot... your the one who spent a gazillion dollars on your car and can barely run a tenth faster than a stock LT1.

Maybe your car is flexed to hell man.

I'll take pictures and show you when I'm done just how much clearance there is.

Well laddifreekindaaaa!

I'm not gonna get into a pissing contest with you bro... after building 5 vehicles in my life, I think I know what I'm doing.

And the Camaro is not a sports car by any stretch of the imagination, but thats fine, I will have spent have of what you spent and in two weeks I'll be running a second and half faster and I'll still beat you on the road course.

and uh ya,,they will go in easily with the heads on..lol
And it all started b/c some jackass decided he had to be a jerk. Congrats...headers on 3 cars huh? Lots of experience. Gotta love a guy who lists a 5" tach in his sig as a performance mod.

Mystic I would quit while your behind your starting to look like a dumbass.

I have put LTs on my 94 and 95 TA.
Both went in from the bottom with no problems, had to jack the TA up higher but it still had the tranny in it, mine did not.
They were Jet Hot coated Hooker headers so maybe that made a difference?

I would much rather set the headers in with the heads off and then bolt them up, the problem they are having is getting them in not bolting them up.

Ouch...I had this prob, but instead of cutting them i lifted the engine with a hoist, unbolted the motor mount from the motor and the frame mount from the k-member, removed the oil filter, and removed the steering linkage - they went right in after this.
