Default shorty headers...

so how did you guys get your aftermarket shorty headers installed? i cant find any easy way to tighten the bolts that go onto the engine bc the tubing is bigger.... just wondering if you guys had any tricks... thanks

I use long 1/2" dive extentions. You need about 10 to 12 inches to get the ratchet below the exhaust pipes. Then it is easy!!
