First, remove any upper strut bars, you wont be able to reach any bolts, nor will you be able to pull the header out.

Second, the header has to come out from the top of the engine bay, there is no room to pull it thru the bottom... trust me, its small enough to slip it out once its all unbolted.

Third, the crank pulley is on the passenger SIDE of the engine, right in the wheel well... the header is in the center REAR of the engine, under the windshield area. One placement has nothing to do with the other, so do your pulley and header install, in any order you wish.

Hope this helps.

Chris, excuse my ignorance but can you explain what a Slush Box transmission is?

Is it a variation of an Automatic transmission or just a term that people use for AT?

What some people that love the sporty-ness of a manual trans, call an automatic.

Slush box = Automatic

Thanks for clearing that up!

I guess it's similar as to how MT are referred to as Stick Shifts?

+1 on the ol' butt dyno for me... it really helps to open up the power on the top end... and I haven't noticed any loss on the bottom end.... i don't know if it's just me but 3rd gear seems to pull forever!
