It's been a looong time since I put mine on but IIRC you have to remove the fans, cross member, and I removed the AC hose that's in the way but someone else said they were able to loosen the compressor bolts enough to squeeze the primary by the hose.<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by RPWSER:

Good point on the mounts...that's what I ended up doing too.<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by Soupaflie:

jackstands. As you are removing misc. items keep
dousing the header bolts with liquid wrench. the airconditioning lines do
not need to be removed. there are 4 bolts that hold
the compressor to the engine block. Just back out
those 4 bolts and hold the compressor out of the way
to slide the header past. Some items that needed
removed: radiator fans, oil catch can, front engine
mount, lower crossmember, and EGR tube. The install is
not as difficult as most people think. I installed the
header and reinstalled my courtesy exhaust all in less
than 5hrs. Including repairing threads on a stud my
brother destroyed and plenty of goofing around. If you
plan to install the ES motormounts ever, do it at the
same time.

Here are a couple of installed pics I took. I meant to do a install write-up with pics but got in to much of a hurry.<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by twentyfivecharacters:
Are you able to post any pictures of the header? If anyone has pictures, post them too, please.</font>
If you look close you can see a dent in one of the tubes. I did that the day after installing it on a huge ice chunk in the middle of the road. But, to answer your ? no I haven't scrapped it on the ground yet.<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by twentyfivecharacters:
WOW.. that looks nice. Do you ever scrape?</font>
