Help to install long tube headers on 2008 GT

2FAST08 · 11-03-2009, 09:45 AM

Hello,

I have been looking for info on how to install long tube headers on my 2008 GT 5 spd manual trans. I realize I will need to loosen the engine mounts and trans mount to have the clearance to install short tube headers so I assume that I will need to do this for the long tube install. Do I need to drop the K member also?

Thanks,

YOu can do the 05-10 longtubes without lowering the K member. It is a little faster to lower it but it is not nesessary.
