The fact that my y-pipe is welded on before the cat and I have to cut it off if I wanted to take the starter out, the fact that I have to remove that tight spaced y-pipe in the first place!!

Mine so far was pulling a 10 point cage in and getting all the unterior back in. Ive never had to do so much cutting and trimming, trial and error in my life....
As for the very first post on the mounter mount bolt,
If you will get a socket head cap screw and grind a little from the outside edge, it will clear and works like its factory

1.) A 4 ft. extension, drop the transmission cross-member, and a wobbler.
2.) I forget, but I managed. Hahah.
My biggest problem was the motor mount clamshell. For some reason, cutting off the rivets on BOTH sides didn't seperate them. Took me 2 or 3 hours of grinding, cutting, prying, etc., to get them apart.

I'd say my least favorite part of the car is trying to perform any work towards the back of the motor under the cowl, it's pretty ridiculous to try to get to the EGR valve (gone now), coolant crossover tube etc...

blowing up 2 engines, 2 transmissions, 2 sets of rear gears, POS headers that would leak constantly throwing a lean code which made the car dump fuel in the drivers side bank and run excessively rich/terrible, MAP sensor going crazy over the big cam, codes thrown left and right then when you finaly work almost all the bugs out and the car runs great the third engine blows up for no ******* reason despite the fact you did everything you could to prevent it resulting in me getting so damn frustrated I practically gave the car away.
but I do miss her...
