Re: 91 camaro ls1 header install question

Yes. Remove the coils and plugs and they slide in extremely easy. One from above, one from below IIRC

Far cry from the all day battle to install LTs on a SBC in a 3rd gen. Plug access is a piece of cake too. Gap, install, replace coils is a 30 min job, even taking a pepsi break

BTW, youll need to cut off the "ears" on the TH400 BH if you havent already

Also, if anyone searches this thread, forget all the easy install part when using a scattershield
