Default Header Install Instructoins

I recently purchased some Hooker LT's for my 01 SS. I saw a while back someone posted a step by step instruction list that looked very detailed. Does anyone happen to have this? Or can point me in the directions of where i might locate such a description to assist me with the install?

thanks

no, your shouldnt refrain from asking questions, just use that button at the top that says "search"

to be totally honest a header install isnt brain surgery, i dont know why people are neede a complete walk through w/ pics . its not like its a h/c install or anything.

well i was the same way when i got my headers before installing them...i searched just about every ls1 forum/website in search of installation info, i baby my car very much and i just wanted to be sure that i wasn't taking off anything that didn't need to be removed or what not...and the pictures helped significantly

ya, its one reason i dont answer many exhaust questions anymore. the guide i put together covers over 50% of the threads posted here, and there are like 4-5 "how to install" threads just on the first page. i dont know what people want, i linked your site that has pics and an install guide, bomax's step by step guide for slp's, and i added my own tips. i swear some people want you to practically install there **** for them.

thats pretty much what i did, went in with some basic knowledge and tackled that **** by myself. ran into a few snags along the way but thats to be expected.
