94 engine rebuild - header question
I am rebuilding my 94 motor and am debating putting headers on while the engine is out. I have a stock exhaust manifold/exhaust up to the cats. From the cats back I have a power effects system. How much fabrication is required to install these headers? Basically what is going to be involved in the installation? I assume that all the stock parts are going to have to go and I am going to have to pick up some sort of after market cats. Also, how difficult is this to install outside the car, then drop the motor in? I figure others have done this before, so any suggestions would be helpful...

Re: 94 engine rebuild - header question (Strick)
What kind of headers are you putting on, the stock or an aftermarket? If aftermarket, long tube or shorties? :chevy

I am looking at Hooker HOK 2061-1 long tube headers....

Re: 94 engine rebuild - header question (STL94LT1)
Apparently coffee alone is not enough, I need a total brain transplant. I have been looking at headers for like 3 weeks now and got my part and types confused.
But, that's good new that they are simply bolt ons. That being said, what are the real (as in real life) benefits of long tube versus "shorty"?

Re: 94 engine rebuild - header question (Nathan Plemons)
The shorties won't do anything for you but look a little better. You really need long tubes.
Any suggestions regarding make/model/installation?
