Default header installation

Just ordered some MAC headers with ORY and I was wondering how hard is it to put on the system and how long should I expect it to take........I know changing the spark plugs kinda sucked...

As with most header installs, the hardest part is getting the old crap off. Macs go in pretty easily.

Good luck..

Good luck.

I had no problems changing plugs on my 01 (stock), #8 was a little tough but the rest were cake. I removed the AIR tube and completely removed the coil pack from the valve cover on pass side. Made the job alot eaiser.
My last car was an LT1 Corvette, changing plugs and wires was a 2+hr job on a good day. Maybe that is why this car seems so much eaiser. -lol

You guys with long tubes have any issues getting at plugs ? I'm planning on getting Pacesetter LT's in the spring.
