Where have you folks had yours installed? I hear labor's around $800 [Eek!] .

Prolly end up doing it myself, but I really don't wanna do this job with jackstands [BS flag] .

You can do it on stands, but its still gonna be fun!! Depending on the headers, some can(not sure which brand) be installed without dropping the K member. Since yours is a Gt, youve got a little more room to work with, so your header install will be easier than the guys with the 4v's.

go to www.fnsweet.com theres a tech article on how to do it. Expect to spend a weekend installing them because you have to take off the k member. I did my BBKs with the k member on, but there is no acess to the bolts.
