I think i could put my pacesetters on again in less than 4 hours. If you've ever put headers on an LT1 then an ls1 header change is like changing the air filter. The Y pipe is the only thing that is a pain in the ***, but thats just because you have to adjust the hell out of it.

I highly recommend getting either the "bump stop" from TR, or doing poly or solid motor mounts when you do the headers. Im going to be putting my poly mounts in real soon, and i've got a bumpstop that i'll let go for about $25.
I say get the pacesetters from TSP along with their y, and doing it all yourself!
