Pick a weekend and I will try to align my schedule for a trek down to your place of employment.

To all interested parties, John bought the headers. Thanks for looking.
Looks like its shaping up to be a nice Friday. 6am can't come quick enough! Gonna paint them with VHT header paint. Not gonna wrap them unless the coating wears off.

Waiting for the ceramic paint to dry on the headers. Then install with new nuts and gaskets.
To cure the paint I have to idle for 10 minutes, then cool for the same. Idle for 20 and cool for the same. The last step is to drive for a half hour and let it cool for a half hour. Just want to start it already!!

Nice, how long did that take? Were the two rear nuts a pita?
For me, the process was surprisingly simple.
I lifted the car at 7:30 and got cracking. The hardest part was loosening the four flange bolts.

I got the two on the right off in a cinch. Cheater bar and the proper 15 mm socket. The left pair was a bitch. The nuts deformed and the 15 mm socket was just spinning. Hammered on a 14 mm and got one of...the other one sheared off and is stuck in the #14 socket.
I had taken the weight off the mounts with my support bar.

From there I removed the engine mount arm.

Four 13 mm bolts hold it to the block. The engine ground strap is a 13 mm bolt too. Remove the bottom engine mount nut and just pull the unit as a whole out.
That leaves you with a clear shot at all the nuts on the bottom. They are all #11 nuts. I had to use a spanner to get the two off on the rear of bank 2. I wish I had a ratcheting spanner for them...have a #10 and a #12 lol.

Those bolts on my car are f'?$k=d!
The friendliest forum on the planet.
They sell a newer style flange bolt. Its $11 per...wasn't gonna spend $50 on four bolts. Hopefully the SS bolts I bought at the hardware store will suffice.
