Time to remove/replace Stainless Works headers?
 
How long (measured in beers, time, swears, whatever...) does it take to get a set of Stainless Works headers out and back into the car? Do they drop out the bottom or go in the top? I am planning to weld a couple wide band O2 bungs into them. I have a 4-post lift and all the usual tools. I've already had the exhaust behind the headers out, so I can do that pretty quickly.

What gaskets are recommended to go back on with?

Thank you. :cheers:

Ever do the swap? How bad was it?

I have not as this '94 came with them already installed. :cheers: I've done other C4s and it wasn't too bad.

They come out the bottom fairly easily.

Ok, I may tackle this in a year or so!

with the exhaust off and under the car.. 10-15 mins per side. i pulled mine out and had them coated.. then wrapped. didnt like the wrap had them out in about the same time and took the wrap off. theres plenty of room and easy access

10-15 mins per side. You work on a nascar team. That is awesome. You are way faster than me!

10 - 15 minutes?
Using a smoke wrench?

Just a detail question but does everyone get every bolt reinstalled on their headers? I hate exhaust leaks an my last Z 90 VIN 103 had a manifold leak that I would fit every two years. Some say that you can't get all exhaust bolts installed, but I disagree.
