BTW, that is for a Fox, but there should be little to no difference.

Yeah, motor needs to come up a decent amount. The driver side is the harder side so you should be in the clear. Starter has to come out so keep that in mind, otherwise the passenger side is cake.

I had to jack my car up HIGH and then also jack the engine up till it hit the firewall to make it clear on my passenger side.

Pain in the butt... but well worth it. When you are done you will be ->

thats little big for a h/c/i combo

 

[Guero]

I got nitrous 2. i was like um 1 5/8 or 1 3/4??? Its only 1/8 of inch bigger, and an inch an together.

 

[Pokageek]

Sounds like a killer combo. Good luck with it. Mustangs have the absolute meanest sounding engines ever. That thing is going to rock.

 

[Guero]

Yeah they do have the best sounded engine!!!!!!!!

 

[Guero]

Man im still not done these ****ing bolts are a bitch!!!!! I had to gring down the bolts that go on the inside side of the tube header!!!! And they still go in sideways. I just need to more and im of to the welding shop!!!! But i cant grind them enough for it to work.... Should i get studs or waht the hell!!!!!!!!!!!!

get kooks next time (if u have the money) ., Being able to put them in one primary at a time is KEY

 

[bigap15]

one primary at a time is key, for the first install. But if u ever have to take them back off, prone to warping.

I've heard a lot of this but have not seen it in person. I'm thinking a lot of people over torque the header bolts without knowing it.

 

[Guero]

Im finally done!!!!! Now i need to take it to the muffler shop for them to cut and connect everything again! LT are a pain in the ass!!!!!!
