Me and my buddy Blake are going to be leaving right after school the Friday for G10 and stay the rest of the weekend (26-28). My car (1999 SS) is "supposed" to be done by this show (getting repairs done for hit-and-run accident). Hopefully it will be done about a week before the 26th so I can put my new exhaust on. Anyone in the Buford area that wouldn't mind lending a helping hand with the exhaust? (I should be placing the order for everything by tomorrow if not tonight--Pacesetter long-tubes, x-pipe, and race mufflers from Flowmaster) I have never done an exhaust system before, and would love to give it a shot with a person that has installed long-tubes before. I'd be fine with just getting the headers installed and getting the rest welded in and such by a shop if we couldn't do it ourselves, but I'd really like to just go ahead and get it all done at once.
Here's everything I plan on buying:
Pacesetter Long-Tube Headers
Flowmaster Merge Pipe Kit
Two Flowmaster Delta Force One-Chamber Race Mufflers
Two Exhaust Hangers
Reducer Cones
Let me know if there is anything I'm missing and if you'd like to give it a shot!
Thanks!

Thanks man! I just finished the PM.
A little off-topic, but you're pretty close to me...do you ever go to that Park-N-Ride thing that goes on every now and then on 20 next to Golden Corral and all that? Or are there any other get-togethers around here? I would love to see that engine bay of yours

Hmm...I will try to come then! It sounds like it should be pretty fun. Just don't bust my chops if I show up in a Ford or a Nissan (dad drives F-150 and mom drives 350Z). Hell, I'll see if my buddy Blake (he'll be tagging along with me for G10) wants to go and we'll come in his V6 Firebird

I have also changed my mind and will be going with a different universal X-pipe kit that is cheaper, but the same idea. Also, instead of the Flowmasters, I have decided to go with the Dynomax Bullet race mufflers. This shouldn't change the price of installation (?). I am also curious where it is you are located. I'm all for helping out the community, but the Southern section covers quite a broad area
I don't want to have to travel too far...

I think I may try putting the headers on myself and have someone do the welding for the X-pipe since I don't weld. What tips do you have to get the car up high enough and safely to do the header install myself?
I would really like to go ahead and get the headers done today, so any help soon will be appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Tyler
