Maybe next time do more research so that you know ahead of time what you need to do. Header installs on the f-body is not an easy job, it takes finesse to get those things in and out. Take your time and look at what you are doing instead of just pulling on stuff. Trust me I do this stuff everyday of my life.

I brought with me some extra plug wires, a brand new set of NGK TR55s, GM MLS manifold gaskets, and just about all we needed. The install was a PITA because the Flowtechs required grinding the block and loosening the steering linkage, so it took us a little longer than it should, but his car is up and running!
BTW, he did not mess anything up at all, and he did the plug change himself with a few pointers rather quickly IMHO!
Let me know how the visit to the exhaust shop went to get the I-Pipe and collar welded! Oh yeah, enjoy your longtubes!
Thanks for Azrael my longtubes are on. Now I just need to find a good bullet to replace my chambered muffler cause I think its way too loud hahaha. I made a thread about it, please check it out guys!
What 03 BUSA said.
You have to take your time especially when you get to the passenger side.
It took me an entire weekend to do Jet Hot LTs & ORY, Dynomax intermediate pipe & and over axle pipe on my 02 SS, by myself.
