Default 01 Cobra header install writeup?

we are going to install some headers on my buddies 01 Cobra. We heard its a real PITA having to drop the K member or pull the motor. I was wondering if there were any writeups for this install. I did a search for Cobra header install and couldn't find anything. Any tips or links would be much appreciated!!
Thanks,
James

6 spd take a look at my post about a '98 GT header install. I outline the tools needed (I'm putting BBK shorties on my '04 GT) I have manifolds off and I'm waiting for parts.

its easier to put them on with the motor out. but its gonan take longer. depends on how cold it i s outside. if its freezing you might wanna pull the motor cuz you will hit your knuckles alot installing the headers with the engine in the car

Thanks guys. I skimmed through your post Mach but figured it was a bit different with the GT than the Cobra. Why are you going with shorties? emissions?
