    just jack it up high, the passenger side will go in from under the truck the drivers side will go in from above, easy way is undo the steering column from the rack and pinion its a number 15 bolt thats holds the shaft together, itll make it easier. but yea jack it way up so the pass. side will slide up vertically, then the drivers side should just slide in, also remove your spark plugs to ensure you dont break any, ive done it enough where i dont gotta do it but your first install id recommend it. hope this helps. also having a 1/4 inch drive wratchet with a short #10 socket on it would be good the back bolts are a bitch without it unless you have the fenders off, which is 5 number 15 bolts and a number 10 to undo the overflow tank, air intake, and underneath the fuse box is 4 number 10s to remove it fromj the fender, otherwise just get a 1/4 inch wratchet.

    Might need an easy out, bolts are known to break. I broke 3, just have patience. Ha all my broke ones out in bout half hour. Lambo might have said it, taking the inner fender skirts out helps too.

    What I found easiet was to take the inner plastic fender wells out. Its soo much easier to get to all the bolts. And if you get the truck high enough in the air then the drivers side will go from under the truck too. Thats just the way I found easiet. Lucky bastard with a lift!!! lol
    Good luck

    Sometimes at work we just let the truck run for awhile and heat up the manifolds and bolts. Then they come out easy, you just have to be careful and not get burned.

    On Brians truck we had to take off the tranny cross member to get the y pipe to fit. But I know pacesetters might lack a little in consistency. Take off the metal heat shields on the firewall at the bottom. It will help. Also 2 people I think is a minimum to get it done effectively

    Long Tubes are on. Back drivers manifold bolt broke. Other than that it went smooth. My only problem is I hate how raspy it is. I have an slp loudmouth and a flowmster one chamber right now. Anyone have any suggestions?
