Header install help
The headers, xpipe and exhaust are going on tomorrow. The only part I'm sweating installing are the headers. Can anyone offer advice or have a link to a step by step for header removal and installation? This will be done on jack stands, not a lift so I'm sure that will throw some added fun my way! Any tips will be helpful and appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I did mine on jack stands, installed AR headers and wasn't bad at all. Just took my time and if ran into an obstacle just took a step back for a few minutes and then tried again. I do highly suggest only loosely bolting them to the heads until you get the x-pipe bolted up too. Good luck.

I'm going with the Dynatech supermaxx headers. They look great sitting next to the car! It looks a little daunting but the write ups you guys posted will be a tremendous help no doubt. Thanks a million!

Other than that they fit perfectly. Follow the instructions that Dynatech sent with the headers and you'll be fine. If you have any other questions feel free to PM me.
