Header install on ramps?
Do you guys think ramps will give me enough height to do the headers? I'll jack the rear of the car up as well. I would rather work under the car on ramps than jack stands. I absolutely hate going under a car on jack stands.

I put car on ramps, then got jacks under front to about 16" to 20" and left ramps under just in case. Made me feel safer that way. I had rear tires on 4" ramp. No problem.

I guess I could roll up on ramps. Put my jack on a few boards. Then get the car. Up. Higher with stands.

Not bad. The rear of the car isn't even lifted. How many inches would you guys say those ramps are?

Love that white car! Are those factory vent inserts? Or where did you get them? Looks real nice and clean!
