Default Installing headers for the first time

I'm getting ready to install SLP long tube headers and an off-road pipe to the Loudmouth exhaust that I installed roughly a year ago. Can anyone offer any advice as far as installation, etc? Has anyone else installed this set-up? How does it sound?

Thanks in advance to anyone who posts a reply....

I un-did the tranny crossbrace and had someone push the tranny over to the left and right to make more room for each side.

If you must remove the steering shaft, DO NOT ROTATE THE STEERING WHEEL. Doing so will rip the clock spring (SRI Coil) in the steering column and this will result in no steering wheel controls and of course, no air bag. It will have the air bag light on.

Just a heads up.
