Default Quick questions regarding headers!

Okay guys, needed a quick bit of information that I didn't find.
I need to change out my knock sensor and I was wondering if installing headers would be simpler if I did it at the same time since the whole plenum and runners come out to reach the knock sensor.

Most annoying user

why do you post so many question threads and get a free pass on them?

Taking the plenum off is easy...headers are a pita.

If this is the Internet then why don't you search the Internet for your answer instead of polluting this forum with your junk threads.

besides you're just a 2bit dreamer and won't install headers.

keep on keeping on being a spoon fed dim witted 20 something. .

You're a funny guy, most of the stuff I've asked questions about is stuff that aren't covered yet or been asked.
Junk threads, junk people on this forum just like yourself. Didn't realize how much it bothers you when a new thread is made, sorry champ.

You're more than welcome to come by and watch me install the headers pal, I'll get you a case of beer so you're not angry!

EDIT: junk people on this forum is talking about you, met a lot of good people on these boards.

Seems like I have my work cut out for me then :P
Longtubes are a bit out of my current budget and I ordered a set of test pipes as well so it's almost the same, almost!
Going to probably tackle the install sometime next week.

Yah, I'll try to figure out some steps to simplify the install or something and take pictures to add to the forums just to help someone else that's willing to give headers a shot!

so no one has ever made a thread on here in 12 years about installing headers?

I have felt out more knowledge on this forum than you would know since you don't search.

how about instead of being a forum leech you post a diy on your header install?

Put up or shut up.

Also look through your created threads history...bunch of junk. All of them point to the fact that your a cheap helpless car owner that doesn't search and wants to be spoon fed.

I bet his next thread will be about missing bolts in the headers or if he can reuse the gaskets.
