A lot of these projects require beer! The more I do, the more I learn that!

I still have a few battle wounds from my header install. The most obvious is a nice 2" scar on the back of my right hand.

I actually took a whole week to do my headers as you might remember. Over that length of time it wasn't all that bad. It is truly a knuckle busting job though. Hopefully in a few months I am going to tackle the Saleen supercharger install. I don't know if I am going to be able to drag that one out for a whole week though. I will be anxious to get it on. One thing is for sure though, the fuel system is done!!

It took me 3 weekends to do my supercharger install. Probably could have done it in one really long day but I wasn't in any hurry.

It is best to take your time that is for sure. Things always go better when you do. Since I don't drive my car daily, I can work on it for extended times. I am hoping for a rainy week when I do mine.

Just wondering, do you have to remove the front fascia to install the Saleen heat exchanger?

Id say yeah...I did. its very easy to remove. makes it easy to get to everything and you dont have to worry about leaning over the front end as bad.
