Default Little BEhind.....Butt.....

I'm putting TTS headers on the car Sunday. We are making off road pipes.
Poly bushings and bigger sway bar....
My first REAL power mod..... besides the Borla... and does that count?

Any advice??? How much beer?? How many knuckles will it take? And how many tools will be thrown down?

And naturally, any tricks???

Beers: Never touch a car without a 12 pack in attendance.

Tools: Hope you have craftsman, cuz I know I return alot of em due to throwing them across my garage in(beats punching my car)

Tips..haven't done TTS headers, just SLP. Don't be afraid to take out the a motor mount at a time(whatever side you're doing) and jack the motor up to help get the header in..that's what it'll take alot of times. Pushing the trans over can do the trick,too..sometimes using both methods is the ticket <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Last time I put headers on a car... was on my 75 firebird... I had to jack the motor up and put blocks between the motor and motor mounts.

That was REAL fun... not...

So what are the best headers to get for the ls1's now?

Chris, Chris, Chris...... <img src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" border="0" alt="[judgement]" />

You know I will say TTS... just forget about the cats. These things look great and ooohhh the flanges. The welds are good looking too!!

Anyway, I have read in places that this may be a little bit of a bear.... just wanted some advice.

Happy Trails!! <img src="gr_tounge.gif" border="0">
