Well I've been working on the MM for over a week. 1 hour here 2 hours there between jobs. The jba's are installed. I don't know about everyone else but, I had to remove the driver's side motor mount and the starter. Did not have to take alot off the shaft. Thanks to musclemerc for his help and sending me the new bolts no charge. And Thanks to Dave for phone tech. I Also painted the calipers.
Used Headers 50.00
exhaust work 100.00
Bolts FREE
removing and welding EGR tude 10.00
total for header install 160.00
and 2 ounces of blood from my knuckles.

2 jobs, wife and kids it's midnight most of the time when it comes to the cars.

Over all I'm pretty happy. little loader then I thought It would be. after the eaton and I drive it some I'll see what happens. Worst case put the stock mufflers back on. I saved them when I changed to the flow masters back in dec.

Ha!! JBA install #4, you got it done cheaper than my 490.00 set up. Good to hear everything worked out for you, I was just wondering about your install and if the hardware got you to the finish line. Glad to help you out Swordfish now you got to get the Eaton done already.... BTW what mid pipe did you use?

Used the setup from the 03 cobra out of my attic. It has the flow master's. Again thanks for the bolts. No one around here had any metric header bolts.
