I just got done putting that same system on my car, except I have a prochamber. Let me tell you I am not too fond of MAC after purchasing their longtubes. They sound great, and really ad power after you bust your *** getting them on. First of all, dont even read the instructions, they are so far off from the truth they shouldnt even include them. They tell you to put the headers in from the bottom, and that the motor only needs to be jacked up 1-2 inches. Let me tell you I jacked up my motor all the way to the firewall and the drivers side still barely fit. The passenger side is a different story. I had to remove the starter, and the motor mount completely, and it still didnt want to slide around the bellhousing without a fight. Oh and It goes in from the top, not the bottom. Maybe if you do yours with the tranny out youll have alot easier time. I also had problems with the header bolts included. The bolt heads were too wide and rubbed on 2 of the tubes when they were tightened, thus I had to slightly squeeze a ding in the tubes with a pair of vise grips. If I had to do it again I would have looked into a pair of BBK long tubes, I hear they are easier to install. I hope this helps you out man, good luck. John P.S. They sounded awesome after I got everything together.
