ahahahahha yah i am actually glad i did equals now that they r done.
They look really nice, just had to vent a lil bit after losing a few knuckles out there...[:@]. It actually wasnt too bad but deffinitely takes more time, no question about that.

RE: Header Install Gasket Sealant or No?
they are macs and no i didnt just had to pull some plugs, plug wires, hoses, intake tube, etc. Although i did have to pry on the tube closest to the firewall on the drivers side to get it to fit. also on the one closest to the radiator on the passenger side. I would deffinitely recommend with a 1 piece flange to avoid that hassle.

Try doing full lengths. Every set ive helped put on i had to un bolt the engine and jack it up, then take out the steering column to.
Now thats a bitch to do
Nice looking dude, looks really good. [sm=smiley20.gif]

thanx it was smoking up a storm for the first 10 mins after i started driving with em on though. Had me freaked out thinking my plug wires were melting, forgot the ceramic paint just has to cure. Doesnt smell or smoke any after the first test drive.
I had originally thought it would make it scream more but if anything it seems quieter, at least deeper and more smooth.
