I want to submit my sincere apology for not checking this thread. We were both building & posting at the same time. With all the posts on here, I assumed by the title, it wasn't engine related. Great dyno numbers IMO.

the headers went in from the top easily the car was 20 inchs off the ground on jack stands (front and rear) , I put them in while the heads were off which made it a breeze. I was intimidated by the install at first and thought for sure i was going to mess something up but i took my time and asked alot of questions which i was actually able to answer most with the help of the search feature and got through it no problem. I didn't even cut up my hands or fingers once lol. I do appreciate the kind words.

You bet! WHen tearing the first head off, I was in a hurry to see what was wrong. My knuckles were all cut up from the valve cover surfacing & blood was all over the windshield.
So tip #1: Put on mechanics gloves!
