Default To hell and not back yet

Im taking a break from putting the bassani headers in. I think im tempted to let the car just fall on me while im under it. The drivers side one came out no problem. The passenger side the factory header bolts that connect to the factory h pipe are like fused together and the o2 sensor is being a bitch to get out. I recommend to anyone thinking about headers pay whatever it is to get them installed cuz this sucks *****. [:@]

Get some acetalyne and some oxgen then a heat torch and go at it, if not get the cutting end and get the biznatch out.... I splurged this Christmas and bought a new Mig welder and Cutting torch...sooooo handy, if not get a zip cut blade and a grinder you can also go alot of havoc to metal with them... DON'T let me forget about the reciprocating saw, nice metal blade on one of them... NOICE! buy cheaper headers and get better tools dude! hahaha
