I have to replace the Gasket in between my headers and the engine block. I have a 2001 Mustang GT, this gasket is located where I can't really reach them, does anyone have and tips, hints, advice, anything, on how I can get this accomplished?

Honestly I would look at replacing the stock headers while your at it. Its an absolute bitch to remove the headers so you might as well put some better ones on if your going to be removing the stockers anyways.

When we installed mine we just jacked the motor up, did it with out removing the K Memeber which alot of people do. Still takes FOREVER!

+1; If you have the extra cash laying around, you might as well find a set of long tubes or midlengths. Might as well get something out of it if you have to tear it down.

if you want to keep the factory manifolds, do yourself a favor and go to the dealer and order the exhaust studs and nuts. they strip out really easy, whenever we do any removal at my dealer we always sell new studs and nuts.
