The slip fit part of the header is what is the pain in the butt. ZZP expanded one section for the crossover into the Y-pipe but it is too expanded and doesn't go in easily making it a difficult install. Hey, but it doesn't leak once you get it in!! I think in general it is a Pacesetter thing for all the problems that I encountered and not a body style thing. Like I said, the bigger primaries move the bolt holes closer to the wall and it is darn near impossible to get a socket on them so most of the work was getting an open end wrench on them an 1/8 of a turn at a time. After the bolts went in it was a fairly easy finish. The down pipe has a stupid design as far as hole placement is concerned too. It was fairly easy to get into the car and routed around everything as far as fitment is concerned. Actually much easier than a GP because of all the room in the front and behind the engine without having to rock the engine forward like in a GP. Here'* some pics.
get the headers coated at jet hot , hpc , or a local coaters
booby you let these call your bonnie a girle car , shame on you

I already warned him about the header wrap. Hoping he already dealt with it.

i am one of the customer service reps , also take care of the warranty returns
the clamps provided are only like 1/2" , and my personal opinion is they are to skinny and suck , ive never had luck with narrow clamps ,i hate U-clamps also
ever since ive used the wider band clamps ive been sold on them , like the pic below , usually cost about 10.00 each
its all my personal opinion and preference , and alot of people ive talked with usually understand , and are ok with know there is a better option , before they dig into the job and have a possible issue down the road
the current headers use 2 1/2" collector and cross over tube

Glad you did. You didn't happen to shoot any pics inside the crossever and collectors before you installed them, did you?
There'* a few issues with the set harofreak00 bought. We're still waiting to see what comes out of PS'* customer service.
