Hey guys, i'm in the process of rebuilding, and am wondering if any of you guys have installed an engine with one of the headers on, or perhaps both.

I don't see how getting the engine in with both headers on would be possible, but am interested in the prospect of getting it in with one of the headers installed, seeing how large of a pain it is to put the stage 8 header bolts on in the car.

Anyways, has anyone done it? which side? problems? easier?

Thanks!

Lance

i have shortys, but i did have them on the engine when the engine was installed. as far as LT's, it's usually recommended that you install them with the engine out. so it is possible, it's just a tight squeeze.
