header install

I just started my header install about an hour ago. I have the driver's side exhaust manifold off and some of the bolt's on the passanger's side off. Unfortunitly it's 95 outside according to my thermometer.

Argh, still on the passanger's side!! All the stupid emission crap is getting in the way. I'll get it but it's just going to take more time. I already unhooked all the 02 sensors, and everything else that has to do with the ypipe, so as soon as I can get the last two header bolts off my stock exhaust manifolds, cats, and ypipe will be history.

Right now I have ONE header bolt holding up the entire exhaust!! For the life of me I can't get to it to loosen it, it's the far one on the passanger side.

I'm searching online right now and I think I might have found the answer so I'm going back to my garage.

Ok after a lot of screaming and cuts I finally got all the header bolts off.

I can't do anymore right now because I'm missing my 20mm box head wrench which is what I need to get the 02 sensor's off and there's one that because of it's placement isn't letting me pull the exhaust manifolds all the way through. So as soon as my wife or my brother(lives across the street) get's home I'm going to get that and finish up.
