Default ? about Pacesetter LT's

I am getting ready to order the Pacesetter long tubes and ORY for my 94 Z. Should I do the headers and ORY first or the converter install. I don't want to have to unhook everything to drop the trans.

get the headers first then a catback if you dont have one. i would get tires before the stall converter too.

do you already have the verter? do both at the same time. but if you dont have the verter, its going to be easier to take the y-pipe down on the headers compared to the y pipe on the manifolds.

Thanks for the input. I have my combo planned out. My question was regarding ease of installation. I hate to sound lazy, but I work six days a week and would like do do this in the easiest manner possible. I might take Scweet97Z's aadvice and do them at the same time.

i would think doing both at the same time would be best.

I got the Coated Pace Setter Racing LT's with no emissions from Summit. They came with the Copper Gaskets. The real metal ones, they are 1/32 inch thick. Do the Stall and the Headers at the same time, that way the car isn't doyn for long, and things are out of the way. I installed my LT's when I changed out the Head Gaskets. That was the easiest way I have ever installed LT's.
