Jack Stand Clearance to Install Headers???
I looked at alot of the D.I.Y. threads and couldn't find an answer. I will be putting on my Kook's Headers in my shop but was wondering how much clearance I will need to slide them under the car and bolt them up using a floor jack and jack stands? Thanks for the help.

As I understand it, you need two feet of clearance. Don't take that as absolute fact though. I haven't done it yet. Springtime!!!!!!

I did mine with only 18 inches of clearence. After you slip it up in there use a bunny cord to hold it up while you go up top to attach headers.

Heres a pic of when I was installing my long tubes. There was plenty of clearance with the car at this height.
