Took me a total of like 12 hours for me and my buddy. With long breaks and BS'ing, couple of beers here and there, I Actually thought it was going tobe harder than it really was.
as one other guy said, try doing them on a GT or a Cobra.....THAT is a PITA!!

This is how you feel now. When you drive your buddy's f-body with headers you will feel different. Your buddy will have to fight you to get his car back.

I think a header install on a LS1 is a cake walk! I have done three of them and I can do them blind folded. Now as others have said, the 4.6 is a bitch! GT hard? HA, do a ******* 4 valve! After working on my buddies 01 Cobra I told him and my buddy with a 00 GT that from now on they are on there own with installs! I hated it THAT bad!
