Thinking bout pickin a set up, how hard is it to install, my car is already in pieces, just says something about filing down the dipstick bracket wondering how much of a pain that is and loosenin up the mounts. Its a 94 gt.

i just ordered some bbk long tubes last night. i was looking at the directions and they dont seem toooo bad. it says that the moter mounts are easy to get to and other than that some stuff just has to be taken off for clearence like spark plug wires, air intake and a few other little things. as for how hard it is im wanting to know the same thing.

everybody seems to absolutely hate them around here. i have a set and dont have a huge prob with em. they dont have a full flange that goes across all the primaries which means after they have a few heat cycles in them and then take em off they have tendancy to be a bit warped. so when you go to put em back on they dont always line up perfect. it can be a pain in the *** with certain sets if ur not lucky

I have the mac 1 3/4 long tubes on the 351. They fit but have minimal clearance. I had to run shaft thru the tubes.
