Default Need help with SLP long tube header install

Does anyone have any tips or tricks to maneuver the passenger header into position. I have tried prying the transmission with no success.

The passenger side is normally not a problem, do you have enough ground clearance?

YES the passenger side is usually the hard one, drivers side is alot easier. Its easiest with two people, put a jack under tranny to support it, undo the tranny mount and pry the tranny to the side. Have one person slide the header in. Your going to need to jack the car up pretty high, as high as your jack will go. Its alot easier if you take the starter off. Or you can loosen up the motor mount/mounts and you can lift the motor up 1-2", and get it the header in that way. If you have any more ?'s post up.
