Default 5.0 header questions

how much more difficult is it to install longtubes on a 5.0 than shortys?
is it like the 4.6 where your better off using a lift or can it be done in your driveway with a little determination? and if it can be done is it harder to do on a 94-95 than a fox body 5.0?

you have to unbolt the motor to put them in and i hear you have to get a mini starter since the headers will heat up the stock one and fry it

Whoever told you you need a mini starter with LT's is wrong. LT's are fine with the stock starter.
