Default installed headers tonight

got a pair of used flp headers because I couldnt stand how quiet the stock stuff is. ive put flp headers on my TA, ive put numerous other brands on f-bodies as well. I have to say that corvettes are a bigger pita by a long shot. I never had to take the coil packs or valve covers off....i mean i even had to take the oil filter off.

passenger side practically fell in. now im missing 1 alternator bolt though. no idea where it went. great.

i think in the morning I will just rip the stupid AIR stuff out because the passenger side doesnt reach and i dont know if i feel like extending the hose or just taking it out.

so i should be getting 1)cat codes 2) air code 3) tps codes
