I can not get the Rear header to go in Any help please I have the Engine as far as it will go forward and it just gets stuck tring to put it in
 


well i know wit my ss it was a ****ing ***** trying to get them in and it took a while so idk maybe keep trying...
 
Your trying to get the rear header to slide in so you can get it to bolt up?


Hook A strap to the engine and pull it all the way foward. Chances are it is not all the way foward. Maybe remove the transmission dip stick?
 


I am tring to push harder I thought about the rubber mallot too but I might have to buy one tommorow. It is stuck on the Valve cover it seems will it go by thus witha rubber mallot
 


yeh the valve cover is what messes it up i chipped mine a lil getting it in thank god i didnt mess it up lol
 
I hate my life I am going to have to take that off do i have to take the alternator bracket off or just get the valve cover nuts off. I hate my life I just want this thing to go on
 
Yup...take off the rear valve cover and god knows what else...umm, maybe the pushrods and rockers too so you don't beat the rear header against them when you're installing it...THAT though...is one of those last minute things...
 


i pushed & twisted really hard to get my rear header in. i also had my buddy under the car pulling. good luck man!
 
My heads are off my car right now, so I think mine will slide in real nicely. Hope you get them in, tell me what you think of them when you get it going.
