Default Motor Mounts & LT headers

I got hooker LT Headers on my SS, is it hard to replace the motor mounts? it looks like it's fairly tight in there. Has anyone had to replace the motor mounts with LT's?
is it easy to do or is it hard to do ?

thanks

Tycoon, what is up? Why do you want replace the motor mounts? You don't have the pins out of the mounts yet do you? If you are trying to find out how to put that drvs side hddr in then drain the crankcase they will go in.

Do a search on the subject, I posted a rather lengthy 'impressions' post a few months back. I did a prothane driver's side mount with my FLPs. It took me 2 full days basically, and involved removing the swaybar, steering rack and alternator.

I sold that car. I will wait till I do headers on the new car to put in the mounts.

at the track i got bad wheel hop, every since then my motor shakes alot more at idle, i got the hotcam. my Prothane tranny mount was bent or broken too because of the wheel hop. I'm figuring my motor mounts are shot or something.
