well as some of you guys know i got some LT headers and now im installing them. heres some info also. i work from 3PM till 2AM so i sleep till like 11o'clock then i get me and my son ready and all that good stuff. so i only get about maybe 2 hours to work on it a day but after 2 days heres what i have got done so far. and heres where it all happens i love doing this stuff and i think the install is half the fun. lemme know what you guys think. :SNSign:
Yo, get some urethane bushings for all the suspension stuff while you're in there. looking good dragonfly
Hell yeah man!!! Looks good.. I bet you can't wait to get that sucker back out to the track afterwards! Can anyone say NPI in the 12's?
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.
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.
How much work is it to drop the k member? I want to install LT's but donno if i can tackle it on my own..
Holy crap, that looks a million times easier than I thought. All simple tools and not much involved.. Maybe I will tackle this during the winter..
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.
