lower the k-member on the driver's side when you go to install. Taking the old exhaust manifolds off is easy. You might think you can install the KOOKS without lowering the k-member, and you might be able to, but just suck it up and do it - it takes way less time if you just lower down the k-member and get it done vs. wasting time thinking about it.

I have seen a video on the install of the Kooks headers. I'll try and dig it up for you.

You will have to notch the one side to get them to fit properly.

Kooks longtube headers For anyone doing this yourself you should pick up a 13mm S wrench for the bottom front header bolt on the driver's side. I just heated and bent an old 13mm wrench to make my own "S" wrench. It took 5.5 hrs start to finish the header install. And this video might be helpful also:
