Polyurethane motor mounts, plugs and wires, mid-length headers and y-pipe at the same time.

probolly take the old exhaust manifolds off then do plugs and wires then headers and motor mounts in case you need to jack the motor up to get the headers in

yeah, i'd def get the motor up either way, it's going to make life a lot easier, i'd finally bolt it down after everything is done.

You'll ned to remove the exhaust to "easily" reach the plugs and wires, as well as access the motor mounts, and you'll have to lift the engine to do the mounts. Therefore, since I've already done this, I'd securely lift the car; disconnect the battery; and remove the exhaust. The major obstacles are now out of the way.

Working from the inside out, lift the engine and swap the motor mounts; swap the plugs and wires (a new distributor cap might be a good idea since you're already down there); install the new exhaust.

Just my $0.02 worth....
