I'm about 4-5 hrs away from Asheville, so I'm not able to help you, but headers are easy to do yourself. I did mine over the course of two nights by myself. Basic hand tools and average skills are all that's required.
First night was take old system off, next night was put new system on. That was certainly not pushing it either. Just casually working on it for about 3 hrs each night.
I even did mine on jack stands. I have a two post lift now, but it can be done on jack stands. Just make sure the car is supported correctly and secure. Above all...be safe when working on a car on stands!

^ agree. Look at about 6 hours taking your time. Depending on brand of headers, install might take some persuasion. I did mine on jack stands too. I think hardest thing was breaking loose the factory manifolds from the cats.
