[/qb][/QUOTE]ive done it 4 times and its a bitch to do, but i learned from the first install how to do it easier and quicker. there is no room to work with,the exaust ports are on a 45 degree angle under the head and u cant see what your doing, but ive done this swap buy pulling the motor and put the headers on the motor and then installing at once and it took me about 6 hours for the entire install. [/qb][/QUOTE]yea thats the best way I found if lift the motor, some people have done it while the motor is in place but fuck all that, no way unless u have a k-member 6 hours for the headders the shit hell of sucks, id like to say 6 hours but when its said done it about 8-10 hours, thats why shops charge 800+ to do the swap personaly I dont think its worth it, if your trowing some heads or doing a Pi motor coo telling you NOS the bitch [/qb][/QUOTE]i remember when i was about to install the motor for the 1st time i asked if u could give a hand and u said yeah, but then i was like fuck it and did it my self. the 1st time was a bitch but the 2nd time was a breeze cuz u figure out whats easiest to do. i have the hooker long tubes and the driver side header comes in peices so what i did the second time is i pulled the steering shaft out kept the header in one piece and welded it together,so no air leaks,but if i decide to sell the headers i will go down and buty a new steering shaft.
