    When I install mine, I'm going to rotate the oil cooler flange 180° to make it easier to change filters when I oil change. Beyond that, I can't see anything difficult about getting these in there. Maybe getting the old exhaust studs out of your head, but just double up and they'll come out.

      Rotating the oil filter housing 180 degrees like karmatose said is worth while doing. Other than that these headers will bolt right up. You'll see when you go to put them on that they only fit together one way.

        What kind of exhaust clamps are you guys using? I'm trying to start piecing together the odds and ends I'll need to get these beautiful things installed.

          I just have the regular u-clamps. They've been working fine for me.

              Mine fit in fine without any issues. Holes lined up PERFECT. I should rotate my oil filter now haha

                      They are still in the process of being coated.

                        The header and mid-pipe combo sounds SO GOOD! I hope everyone enjoys these as much as I do! :)
