Car wont start after headers and mounts =[ I installed pacesetter LT with their y pipe, and prothane mounts. My car cranks but wont fire. I have brand new plugs with brand new MSD wires. The plug on the top of the alternator is plugged in, the hole ontop of the intake manifold is plugged. I cant figure out why it wont start. Coil pack plugs are connected, IAT is connected, MAF is connected. This is kinda frustrating. The rear o2's are not plugged in, but the front o2's are plugged in.

I bet you had a funny look on your face right after you saw that rag disappear.
