i have a 96 gt with a mac off road h pipe and flowmaster 40's and i want it louder and more power. i was told longtubes is the way to go to achieve this. how difficult is the install.... what am i getting myself into cause i havent heard very good things.
Better have some time and a good tool set. It takes some effort but it can be a driveway project. Myself I won't do it because it is a pain. You would also have to swap the midpipe for one that will fit the longtubes.
It's a pain in the ass. I had to jack up my motor, rock it back and forth so I could get the bolts out. This is the bottom line if u have a lift and engine lift, know how to to diconnect the motor and all the wires and crap you can do it. BUT not alone. I would have somebody else do it for me cause it was the most painful thing to do to my stang.
You're going to have to drop the k-member in order to get enough to squeeze them in there and if you ever plan on getting a tubular k-member now is a GREAT time to install it.
Remember also you're going to need a way to support the engine when you drop the k-member.
