Dynatech pretty easy to do, I did it myself without a lift in one afternoon. Never did anything like that before, just follow instructions. The kit comes with everything clamps, hi-flo cats, x-pipe

I have Stainless Works. I love them. Install time was 5hrs 45mins. Fit good, grind the tab off the block on the bottom and you'll have no problem.

If you're young and have the tools, it's easy.
I paid $400 to get my headers/x-pipe and cats installed. Best $ I spent.

I agree too. My Stainless Works went on from the bottom - but a pro installed them for about $500 worth every penny.
