Finally, I put my headers in today and had time to snap a few photos. I would have had more, but I was paying for shop time and the guy I paid to help me was trying to hurry.

Hooking up the ORY-pipe

I wish I would have had more time to take more pictures, but we were on a roll.
My mechanic forgot to remove the dust sheild, so it rubs, but im removing that when they cool off.

The dust shield on the steering linkage. It is a bit more than a bit louder, and definitely more open.

I'm doing this soon with probably pacesetter long tubes. How much clearance do you have with them on and do you have any tips other than what is on torques thread?
