Default AGH! headers installed....

what a nightmare. First off i should have listen to you guys who said go with the 2151's. the emision stuff onthe the 2149's get in the way of everything.
first getting the old manifolds off was cake. two hours into the project and everything was off. that was my first worry. nothing is this easy. installing was the nightmare. you guys were not kidding when you said it was a PITA. i removed just about everything but the heads. the drive side was a bit easier but not by much. still having some problems but all in all i'm glad i did it. still have to go back next weekend and tighten anything the gets loose and find out where all the spare peices go :eek: also replace some part and bolts i sorta broke.

My hookers slid in place in 30 seconds after everything was out of the way.
