Default Header install without motor jack

I was able to install a set of the BBK headers without lifting or jacking the motor. The passenger side involved the removal of all of the EGR lines, but it was no major issue. You just have to rely on some manipulation and positioning of the header correctly into the tight area. This was on a 94 5.0, tricky, but doable. Get all of the EGR components out of the car and you are on the home stretch. I found the drivers side to be more difficult. One friend working the header from the top of the motor will help a great deal. In fact, I don't believe I could have completed the task without his help. If you have any additional questions....just let me know.
