Of course, trying to install the headers was a different story.
Here is what transpired:
The car was prepped and staged. Pretty simple
stuff here except for the fact that I had to get my
brand new rims and tires mounted :(
The old 14" wheels wouldn't allow for clearance from
the oversized calipers. Oh well.
The engine was carefully moved into position.
A little help from my brother in law Tony made
this go smoother than I had anticipated.
Ahh....almost thereBut wait! Those damn tower braces are getting in the way.
Half hour later:
There we go. Unfortunately I didn't photograph how difficult it was to
get the bolt holes lined up for the motor mounts.
This really ticked me off. Don't wanna talk about it so
don't ask...
Could it get worse at this point?
Yes! Take a look at the clearances that I had left in
order to install the exhaust manifolds.
Yes...it's tight
The good news? I get to pull the motor out one more time!
