Headers install - Difficult?

I have a C6 on order and already are considering a few mods for next winter. First on the list is installing a set of long tube headers with high flow cats to the stock NPP exhaust.
I consider myself a passable wrench turner if I have decent instructions to follow.
Are installing headers on a new C6 within my capabilities?

If you scroll halfway down the same page you posted this question you will see the exact same question posted just a couple of days ago... I replied there so instead of repeating myself I'll link the thread here:
