...and will probably need help on the install. Anyone in NoVa have experience doing this? Got a shop with any needed tool and lifts. Will pay in beer. Not sure when I'll actually be doing this but if anyone's interested I'll let you know.

Oh, this is the first thing I bought for my Z (performance wise). Also should be getting my AAM Spacer this week too. Good times! Need to get a damn baseline.

I'm looking into getting some headers! How much did it cost for the install? I got a $300 quote the other day!

Still not installed yet... they're collecting dust in my basement. I plan on installing them myself... but $300 ain't bad at all. I've heard of places charging over $700.

Military auto hobby shops are pretty nice, except their tools are always beat to ****. The one on Ft. Meade doesn't allow you to use your own tools for some dumb reason. Anyway, if you're doing your own header install, don't try it without a lift.
