trying a header install
i'm gettin ready to put my headers in but i was wondering if there were any tips on getting at the rear exhaust manifold...i know you're supposed to get at it from the top but did you guys just feel around back there for the bolts or did you remove some of the stuff in the back of the engine for more access?
thanks for the help

Im thinking of tackling this isntall too and i was worried about the same thing. Getting the rear manifold off. so i can just lay across the block and reach down? are the bolts torqued on extreamly tight?

I did mine by jamming my arm in there... It can be done but you become one with your engine.. also if you have a lift and air wrench some of them can be gotton to from the bottom.
