are you talking shorties or long tubes? the installation process for both is a lot different. with long tubes i believe you almost have to remove the motor, or at least lift it a few inches to get the drivers side header in. sorry ive never done LTs on a newer stang before, just shorties and those were easy, well i did use a lift.

shorties can be a pain, still, you'll need to take the engine up off the mounts a little bit to get enough clearance. You can sort of, "shoe horn" them in, where as with LT's, there's no comprimising
