Default Dynomax Header Install Question

Hi Everyone
Winter projects are coming along well and I'm ready to install the Dynomax headers. The question I have is in regard to the metal spark plug shields. Not the chrome pieces but the shield underneath them. Did anyone install these under the headers? Should they be installed or do they interfere with the header. Are they even needed? While the exhaust is out it would be real easy to put these in but I'm sure it would be a bear after the headers are in. Just wondering how you guys did it?

That's great news. I didn't really feel like putting them back on anyway and I agree that it will clean up the block nicely. Thanks for the quick comeback.
