DIY removal/installation shorty header?

FordorNA · 12-04-2008, 01:06 AM

I'm having a hard time locating the DIY for any shorty header, if there is one. I just purchased the Megan shorty header and plan on installing it myself real soon. Appreciate any help.

Use the dcrh DIY. Same process.

Cool. But I heard there was a way to remove and install the header from the top of the engine bay. No access to a lift, so trying to keep it easy as possible.

All you need is a jack and jackstands. You still need to get under the car to loosen like 3 bolts.

It may be possible to remove from the top. You would have to remove the valve cover to have enough room.
