Anyone know of a good installer to install a set of S&S headers on a '98 SC400 in the Phoenix area? Thanks.

I'm sure I can do it, however I'm not in AZ. From what I've heard that you pretty much have to yank the motor out (which I've done...plenty of times), or you can just tilt the motor (I don't know how much, but every time I've pulled a 1u, I've taken the hood off). Be prepared to pay a good bit though.

had them on my 95.the motor does not have to come out but they are a major pain in the a** to put in.

Thanks for the comments. Does anyone know if there are better headers or that are easier to install than the S&S for the 1998 SC400?

All headers are going to be hard to install especially on v8s. On my buick I had to jack the car up high and raise the motor up then wiggle them in from the bottom.

Thanks, 95silversc, I thought probably it would be a tough job. Now I just need to find someone here in the Phoenix or Southern California area to do a good install. Also, I'm wondering if the '98 is a better breather than earlier models and wouldn't benefit as much from headers. I know the intake is a shorter run.

Actually many say the vvti pushes more hp out of the headers than earlier models. I just ordered a set and it's on the way. It's going on my 98 vvti sc400.
