Default clutch replacement and LT headers

I've got LT headers in my mustang and I think it's time for a new clutch (squeaks when clutch is pushed in, difficult to engage 3rd under rather quickacceleration, really mushey, and incredibly stiff). How much of a PITA is it going to be to get the clutched changed out having those header?

This is exactly why Im waiting to do my lt install. Im in the need for a new clutch (stock @ 102,000), so Im just gonna get the clutch put in, then put the lt's on and put the tranny in myself, with a lot of help of course (oh yooohoooo, 4doorcivicsleeper!!)

I dont know for sure, but Im under the assumption that you're gonna have to take at least one of the headers off, if not both.Good luck.......

Yea.. I know the pass. side has to be at least loosened up if not removed. But yea... that's what I get for not thinking through.
