Default Header Install

Anyone know of any very good but also very reasonable places to get my headers installed? Thanks!! Around the STL area or south of there would be best for me

Anywhere from 100-300 would be something I would pay. But I would make them install the headers, y pipe, and some motor mounts also. That's what I would do if I had a shop install my parts for me.

I was planning on the y pipe as well I would just bring the car up there with the headers gaskets, y pipe and o2 extensions and see how much they would charge

Not sure where you are in Southeast MO but we are right by Springfield. We can make you a package deal on the install and the tune.
