Next Gen can do the install for you. But you can keep paying shops your hard earned money for the rest of your life. Or learn to do it yourself. No one will care for your ride as much as you. Shops don't take pride in their work anymore. Small shops with older guys like AED take pride. It's how they were raised. The new guys coming up in high cost of living cities just want to make a buck of you. For the labor price a shop will charge, you can buy all the tools you need and do it yourself. When you are done, you will have all the tools and knowledge plus new headers. If you pay a shop, you'll only have new headers at the end. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>bullitt08</b> <br /><small>Member # 13932</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2024,6,15,14,47,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Yeah true just worried about the whole raising the motor thing.
