That's a good idea, man. I might do that. I know he said not too long ago that he was going to be up in the PC/Lynn Haven area sometime soon and we were discussing me possibly getting IPF tuned. Thanks for the heads up! |

Okay guys. Got a new quote to install the headers for $274 this time. I'm going to jump on it. Way cheaper than before.
Also PoorMansCamaro....I did ask their hourly rate for labor this time. |

I would call the place that quoted you $460 and tell them thank you for giving you a vastly overpriced quote for header install, because now you've found a reputable shop that isn't over charging, and tell them your new quote.

I like Shock top or Blue moon with a slice of orange man!! LOL!
I live north of Pensacola and I'm off for a whole month. If you don't get this installed by June 10th when I get back home. Let me know and I'll drop the wife and kid off by the shopping mall and help you out. My bestfriend and I did my SLP LT headers on my SS in about 2-3 hrs with floor jacks and stands. We were not rushing either. All you need is a socket set really. The torque wrench is a good way but you can tell around 18ft-lbs and it don't take much. But it's really not hard and I wouldn't mind as I come that way anyways on nice sunny days. I keep a tool set in the trunk that would complete it all. But I would recommend a nice Craftsman set in the truck just incase for future. You never know when you may need it.

Dude, I totally would have bought TWO cases of each....and even drove out west to see you....and I still would have saved money!!!!! Hahaha. That would've been fun!!! Thanks a ton for the offer but I ended up going to a different shop and paid $274 for the install header. I was happy as it was way less than paying $460!!! I got them installed this past Monday. You going to be at any of the upcoming ECC cruises??? Thanks again for the offer. Maybe when I get another set of lowering springs.... I was once quoted $600 for install...so I sold them! LOL. |

Good luck man! I haven't found a single shop in my area willing to install headers. Small towns suck

I have the same question mine wanna charge me 450 to install now I have a friend that is willing to help me out but then what do I do about the check engine light, someone told me that my car would run rich or lean due too not having a tune after a header install( kooks header) so should I install them anyways?
