Default 68446 Hedmans on 1990

Can anyone tell me what all has to be done or moved around in order to get these to fit on my car correctly? I was planning on installing them this weekend and was hoping I wouldn't run into any problems. Any help you guys have is greatly appreciated. Thank you

things to consider.

heat shield for starter.
spacers for header bolts. other wise you need header bolts. and most are fine but the back ones are hard to deal with.

Some sort of bracket needs to be made for the back of the alt bracket to the header location.

Heat shield, or move fuel line away from header on passenger side.

might need to dimple the headers in a couple places to get the spark plugs by.

02 sensor... probably want to switch a heated O2 sensor. also you need to figure out where you are going to mount it.

And whatever you plan on doing with the smog pump.... egr cross over will need to be blocked if you dont have that ****.
