Both photos are of the passenger side. I have another picture of it here.

@Too Many Projects: We did manage to get it out with the plugs still in. What helped was we had the car on stands and were able to pull the header away and down (but not out) before pulling the engine up.

Sorry, I meant drivers side.


The reason I say that is…..my headers are Hooker Competition Headers. The reason I know, even though the tag's missing, is because the holes are there where the rivets were.

And that is an easier method of re-assembly, if you are comfortable with the car that high on stands. Leave or take the oil filter off as well as the plugs and the header will slide right up in place from underneath.

That's probably what'll happen. I'll likely lower the engine in with the car on the ground, and then jack it up to get everything underneath buttoned up and the headers on.

I'll nab some pictures of the other header tonight or tomorrow.
