You should be able to do it in a weekend if it's all bolt on. If welding is involved and you don't have one, hit a shop up.

just remember to spary something on all the bolts. if you break one its really gonna be a pain. you should be able to do it all in a drive way tho

the headers are going to suck installing, but damn are they easy to seal up. unlike other sets of headers.

True, a broken bolt isn't really fun, but if the bolt is broken off into a part that he's replacing (since he's doing headers), it's not too bad...Originally Posted by blowfishRus6
If I were installing headers, and the bolts didn't want to turn, I'd just cut 'em with my Dremel.
To add to the "It Came Today!!!!" excitement, my ported TB showed up today.

yea just dont break the bolt on the cross over pipe where the bolt is welded on the back. damn that was a *****..

To which bolt are you referring? Breaking any of the crossover bolts doesn't matter since the manifolds aren't going on the car anymore.
And, I did break one of the rear crossover bolts. It's not welded in, just seized damn tight. When I was done, I replaced all four of the crossover bolts with my own stainless steel nuts, bolts, and washers with anti-seize to prevent the issue from ever happening again.

yea your right. i forgot i had to put mine back one. stupid headers dident quite fit

nice set up too btw

It works. Pretty well, actually. GM should've done it this way to start with, but I don't think they expected so many people to be changing out manifolds...
