is there anyway to get these headers in through the top? i have no heads or accerories on the car since we just dropped in the motor. i tried dropping the tranny down first and they still wouldnt fit. how about lifting the motor a little?

No they won't go in the top. The shock tower braces won't allow them to go into the top.

Any way to do this without taking the mount pedestal out? Just put poly mounts in, and can't imaging trying to get the pedestal bolted back up with those brand new poly mounts in.
