Just ordered some headers, what is the going rate that places are charging to have shorty headers installed. Thanks.

 

Which ones did you get?

 

Call up a local muffler shop and ask. That is your best bet for prices in your area..

 

I wound up going with the JBA Cat4ward. I called a performance shop and they quoted me at 525.00. I thought that was a little too much. I have installed BBK shorties before and it sure as hell wasnt worth 500 bucks. I might just end up grabbing a friend and doing it on a saturday.

 

do it urself. i was glad i did..... even though i scratched the $hit out of my hands and forearms reaching into the tight spaces with sharp edges. long sleeve t-shirt might help.

 

yea i think i will.

 

My install shop quoted me 400 i think, but I also got gears installed for 400 including parts and labor. I ended up installing my shorties by myself. You will need jack stands or ramps, a trolly jack, 13mm or 1/2" ratcheting flex head wrench, and assorted deep sockets swivels, and extensions. It will take some time to install them, but I am glad I did them myself. BTW the JBA shorties were a good choice!

 

Midnight, if a write up will help you, I can try to put one together in the next couple of days. I took pictures during the first day and took notes, then i got pissed off and stopped, but if you can do one side, the other side is pretty much the same. Will you use a write up with pictures and required tools if i make one?

 

or my full exhaust headers, custom H, and flowmasters i only paid 1400, assuming that the mufflers were 125 each and the headers were prob around 300 and the H pipe was prob 150, i would say that 500 might be correct for install, but you prob could do it urself

 

I have access to a lift so i think that will make it a little easier. I am definatley going to do it myself.
