I'm sure this has been posted hundreds of times, but any tips on the LT Pacesetters would be appreciated. Gonna start it Friday after work.

You have a lift -- or at least some ramps, right?Former Ride: 2002 Pontiac Trans Am WS6 - 345 rwhp, 360 rwtq... stock internally.

No ramps, but i have 3 quick-pump jacks and some 4x6s. when I put the lift on my silverado, I had the truck high enough to sit underneath it. Getting it up there is interesting to watch.Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up and totally worn out, loudly proclaiming......WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!Comment

I just put my SLP shorty headers in 2 weeks ago. Biggest pain in the butt was getting them in from underneath. Getting the gaskets aligned was a challenge too. I ended up using thread to hold the gaskets on the first and last pipes. Everything looks like it is properly aligned and tightened snugly, but I am getting a tapping noise from somewhere.
Spark plug access is great though, took like an hour and a half. The new problem plug is #3.
I gotta figure out the tapping noise though... Getting knock on all 3 passes @ the track. Just ordered the pcmcomm logger to see how much timing is getting retarded. Track is only open for 2 more weekends, and it would bug me all winter if I don't get this sorted out.
Good luck on the install, and if possible get help when you go to put the new headers on from underneath.1995 Firebird Formula
