Its a bitch lol. My dad is helping me and...well..he has a different way of doing things. So we've done a bit of things out of order...and hes stripped some bolts and got a jack stuck and stuff like that. We might be able to finish tomorrow or maybe even tonight though...but i'm sore...everywhere. haha. We just finished taking everything off. So..about half way done I guess? About to try to install the new headers.

You are a lot better than my dad and I then! haha. 2nd day over and we just got on the driver side headers... We still have the old headers on the passenger side lol.

Can't seem to get to the bolts and screws in the old manifold. The Motor mount is in the way... but when I try to take the motor mount off...the nuts and **** I have to get to are nearly inaccessible

So not sure how we are going to get the passenger side off. I guess we are pretty far along if I think about it..because once we get the passenger side in, it'll probably be a piece of cake. But it sure as hell didn't take us 2 hours haha.
