I hope you have access to a lift because if not then get the highest floor jack you can with JACK STANDS!! Please dont make us hear about a guy in Cali whose new Mustang fell on him

Uggg... no lift. I have to do it the old-fashioned way (jackstands and ramps). I have read before about the starter and steering shaft, so I was planning on doing those. I'm going to try without loosening motor mounts first... but if I have to do that too, I will (but I hope not).

any idea of what to expect power wise with those on a NA car?

I haven't seen any dyno charts, but the RPMOutlet website claims "24+ HP and 33 Ft. Lb. Torque". Unfortunately, I won't be able to do a pre/post dyno pull to find out for sure.

I'm having a bit of a brainfart today. I seem to recall reading in a header install post about a specific socket size/swivel/extension combination that was highly recommended to reach the headers bolts. But, I can't seem to be able to find that post. Does anyone recall what that was? Or know which post?
Thanks!!
Thanks!!

Hey Don, while your there, I have heard that the solid motor mount are a real good mod, puts more of the power to the wheels and feels real good on the butt o meter

I considered doing that... but I'm going to hold off for now. Besides, my shaker scoop moves better with the engine torqueing over. haha

Yes, I see your point about the shaker...well, you could always look at it as the car will now move more around the shaker...lol

I just returned to San Diego tonight from a week in Phoenix, and lookey here what Santa left for me while I was gone!
These things look great!! Very nicely built and finished. All the parts and pieces are there (even new gaskets and header bolts). Well packaged... no shipping dings or dents. I am impressed so far... two thumbs up.

Thanks Tony. I spent weeks agonizing over trying to find an equivalent setup for less money, but I really couldn't. After seeing these in person now, I'm glad I went for them. As long as they fit as well as they look, it will be $1200 very well spent IMO.

I hear ya, when it's all said and done the only money I ended up saving was the $200 on the used JBA's. I still need the catted-H. (I think I made up my mind now)
In the end it will be interesting to see who ends up making more H.P. if any. I'll be getting a baseline before the install, and one after with a custom tune.
