Had no probs getting the bolts and the old shorties out, but... Getting the long tube in caused a pain in my a$$ for the better part of a day and night to install. Just could not jack the car up high enough to keep the collector from hitting the ground before I could turn the headers up horizontally. Sooo (you gonna laugh your AO!)... My driveway is gravel and I move the car onto it and dug a couple of ditches under where I had to maneuver the headers through along side of the engine. Now I'm LMAO just remembering it!
