Just installed my headers about 2 weeks ago, We had to remove the motor mount bolts and raise the motor... fell right out after that...

Also makes for a easier install for the headers...

I'm in the process of doing my header install... Where are you guys jacking up the motor at? are you putting the jack on the cranks pully or maybe the oil pan with a piece of wood? I put headers on my old mustang and jacked the motor up from the oil pan... dont know if this is the best to do with LT1? Any other advice?

After reading your 10 lines of cosmetic mods it's about time you threw some power mods at it

Looks good, the power seems right on for me. All of my A4 LT1's dynoed 230ish bone stock.

you can do it that way or you can do it on the k-member right under the motor.
