Installing pacesetter long tubes.
#2
all i have ever used is the classic knuckle busters to do the install
nothing really to do as far as tricks
have a sawzall handy incase the manifold bolts wont come loose at the y-pipe connection to manifold......

I'm looking at the Pacesetters too (also already running the True Flow intake and have the Nelson Tune) so be sure to post how you like the longtubes once you get them on...Similar setups, I'll be interested to know how it works for you.

I wouldnt think there would be a need for an impact if you let the bolts soak for a while but it would make it easier I guess.... I dont know how you are going to get it into some of those tight spaces though honestly...

I used a ratchet to beak the bolts loose then backed them out with my air wrench. You won't be able to use an air tool on all of them, space is tight in the back. Both my headers went in from the bottom, and that was with a jack in a parking lot. The install was cake, the hardest part was getting the old exhaust off. The driver's side last ex. bolt(closest to fire wall) had little room for the ratchet to fit so I used a rachetting wrench and it was good.

Just make sure you have some wd40 on hand and spray the **** out of the manifold bolts before you start.
