Uber is coming to my buddy Robs house in Stamford, CT to use his lift that he has at his house. I'm paying him to save me the headache, and going to show him how we party in CT that Saturday night. You should roll down with him.
Little does Uber know, that I'm hiding an ice in the stock manifolds for him.
Melfi you can come too man, where in Jersey are you from? If you are in North Jersey, we will probably only be 25-30 minutes away....

where u installing these bad boys rob? if you're coming to pa, im coming to watch the fun begin. i remember when i was putting my lts on at my dads house, my mom walked into the garage right after my egr tube snapped off the header, needless to say she heard just about every word in the book. i haven't lived at home for like 4 years and she still gave me the look like "your ****in grounded mister"...yeah lts are ****in fun man.
Yeah I remember those good ole days.Working on cars in the yard at my parents house.
Boy some nasty words would come out my mouth.when you bust a knuckle open and its bleeding all over the house,then they see why
hey Purple GOOD LUCK with the install.Be talking to you soon.

I didnt have any issues when I installed my MACs. I dropped the K member, and then lowered the engine down as much as I could so the header bolts were in the wheel well. I replaced the gaskets with new Ford ones, and I also bought Stage 8 locking header bolts. Other than that, it was pretty straight forward, and I had no issues with the stock dipstick either...

For me, lowering it was way easier. With the whole K member and suspension being out of the way, you can actually sit upright in the wheel well and work on it. So lowering the engine put the head ports right in the wheel well and all the bolts were right at eye level...
