Well, I dont consider myself a complete idiot but, for the life of me I cant get my pacesetter header on the passenger side.
no matter which way I try to fit it in there, it wont go. Keeps getting hung at the firewall, or hitting on the frame or the AC crap.
So what the heck is the secret?
take it easy on me
i had to trim a little off my bell housng on the pass side. i put mine in from the bottom with no issue.
That was the easy side for my brothers 02 z71.. we didnt have to cut or fab anything, they both fit nice. try coming from the bottom..
yeah I sky jacked my truck, took the heat shield off the fire wall, and in she went. Then again mines not a z71
Mines a Z and both went in from the bottom,no problems.
Yeah, it should go in pretty easily from underneath... But make sure to jack it up high enough---it has to get almost vertical to wedge it in there...
you may have to put a block under the oil pan and lift the engine a little if the mounts have started collapsing.
I did try from the top and bottom but no luck, wasnt hitting any heat sheilds, just the tub/firewall and the it gets caught on the topside by the silver AC can thingy thats mounted on the firrewall.
I will try again in a wek or two, darn busy schedule.
that may be the case, truck is on 33's and I had the front end an extra 6 inches off the groung.Quote:
