Im looking at purchasing some QTP 1 7/8s headers was wondering about how well these fit & ease of installation. Ive did a few searches and have come across one problem resulting in having to grind down the steering nuckel for it to clear the #1 primary. Has anyone else had problems with installation of these headers and can this be done without a lift? (to save a few extra $$$)
Thanks,
Matt

it depends on the year of your car, most steering shafts will clear. mine (2000) didn't, they probably switched in the middle of the year also.
you can pull out the shaft without a lift.

i assume he plans on doing some work on the bottom end or has some MAJOR valve train modifications soon to come-1 7/8" would be overkill on stock valvetrain i think

Onyx LS1 , are you saying the header install can be done w/o a lift?
Thanks for the replies!
