1 7/8" header install help!!!!!
1 7/8" header install help!!!!! Hey guys been trying for about an hour now and cannot get the pass side arh 1 7/8" to go in....The front of the car is about 30in off the ground and it will still not go in...Any pics or suggestions would be great!!!!
Are you sure you've tried all the different angles? Have you tried to put the header in totally straight up (collector perpendicular to the ground? Maybe if you pull the starter?
I have the 1-7/8" AR headers also and my pass side was a pain in the *** to get in!!! I finally took a break and when I came back I realized I could slide it in except that pipe running on the inside was hitting the tab on the bell housing (T-56). Now what I should have done was waited until I had time to drop the tranny and bellhousing, able to get a lift, or cut the tab off, but instead I was getting pissed and anxious so I took a hammer to that pipe and dented it enough to get past that tab 
It was still tight but with some muscle it popped in.
Be forwarned though, there's a wire bundle running straight up and down on the pass fenderwell and when the tubes are in it rests right on that connector. There's no room to move it once the tubes are bolted in so mock it up to see if it'll hit. If it does leave the header loose so you can reroute those wires.
