Man, installing longtubes for us like like changing sparkplugs on a 4th gen LT1 Camaro.

1 big pita... lol. Looks like I good project though, if I had the confidence of dropping the k-member then Id probaly give it a shot myself.

Anything holding your engine up aside from the jacks..? lol.

Yes there is. Altho you can't see it, teh special Dargon powahs are holding it up! :mad: :D
 
ah how i dont miss doing that. That was not a fun install at all. Your block set up for the engine is um intresting to say the least. i personally would support it better once you start taking the studs out. Oh yea word of advice that makes it a little easier when putting the lt's in is grind the tops of the studs down a little it will make it easier to get a box wrench or rachet wrench on to tighten them.
 
Umm..I just had to drop my k-member twice for my clutch swap.
It wasnt that bad, nothing like the head swap.
Good luck on it, and nice jack set up..interesting.
You'll love the sound of the L/Ts though...yumm..
 
my jack set up FTW. i love having air tools also, it makes it 200x's easier. oh and this is very supported i got the front held up and the back with a jack also. the altezzas are doing fine also.
