    probably if you pull off the header from the bottom you wont have to worry about that.
    What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

    You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

    Retro!

      Just delicately flex it out of the way. You shouldn't have to move it much to get your header in there. If you disconnect it you're violating some EPA laws and could cause a serious freeze burn from the temperature of the refrigerant that's coming out. I don't know that you can fit the header up from the bottom as previously mentioned, but you can try.

        The aluminium flange and pipe that connect into the flexible hose ARE in the way
        You WILL have to remove that flange/pipe to install the header

        What i did was refabricate the flange so the pipe exit was on an angle, which with the hose attatched misses the header by about 20mm

        You could do the same, or just lose your AC.. I'm Aussie, AC isn't optional

              put some wd40 or pb blaster on it. For me it wasnt hard at all to take them off, a long extention from the bottom did it.

                The problem with my old ebay header is that I couldnt get to the down pipe bolts at all. I bought a Ractive header and it fits ALOT better. Still not perfect but its a hell of a lot better than ebay junk.
