LT Headers install Local? Anyone?

Well i have gotten a pair of Hooker long tube headers that i am looking to put on.

I was thinking about installling the headers myself because i really want to learn how but don't think i have enough experiense with all of it yet and paying someone doesn't really fit into my budget right now. So I was going to get my friend to help me but he's not sure if he wants to and has never done a header install on a 4th gen LT1 since we have to jack up the motor.

Would anyone be interesting in helping? And if not does anyone know of anyone private or a local shop that does a good job and isn't to expensive? Also do you know how much they charge?

Can't wait to get these things on I have an 00' GT that i woud really like to try to beat.

Forgive me for sounding dumb...did I hear that you have to jack up the motor to install Long tubes??? Good Lord is it really worth all that?

From what i have read you do. I'm not sure it its required for all of them though. I have heard so of some people having to and some not having to. I think it just might depend on how high you can jack the car up to.

Re: LT Headers install Local? Anyone?

that is all you need to depend on when installing lt's on an lt1, you have to jack the car up very high, ill lifted my whole car up with an engine hoist, anyway, if anyone is needing work done to there car for a descent price hit me up, i have owned and opperated on lt1's for years.
