Easiest to install headers?
I'm thinking of going with Kooks. Texas Speed has em for $775. Are they any easier to install than some other brands?

I've heard LG's are easier than Kooks. I have the 'older' design Kooks and they weren't a problem.

Recommend you use PERCY'S gaskets and ARP hardware.

Kooks are a PITA, but worth it.

I installed the Dynatech's in just over 3 hours including the removal of the old stock system. I believe the LG system is about as easy too...

Here are the instructions I used on installing the LGs on my car. It went really easy and they let you know about any problems you may encounter.
