BRP Hot Rod "Hedder" install on 73 Z/28

[1st and goal]

Hello,
I got my 1 3/4 long tubes from BRP yesterday and did a quick mock up and they went right in. Drivers side was easy, pass side was not too bad (had to remove the starter), not much clearance as I still have the A/C box and have plans to get the A/C working again next month.

The "hedders" (as Hedman spells them) looked great.

I've uploaded more pics to my photobucket album, I'll throw some more up but check out the album for all the pics. I'm a picture whore so I took alot :)

I really miss my old house as I had a lift in the garage, back to jackstands :(

Gotta throw a plug to my lil girl Holly (wife wouldn't let me spell it Holley :( , she loves "Daddy's red car" and keeps asking when we are going back to the dyno .

Once I'm done and good to go then my daughter and I will be going back to the dyno :)
She woke up at about 5500 on the first pull when I got my baseline.

The car made 322 RWHP on a land and sea dyno - 98 Z/28 motor, cam and LS6 intake, stock exhaust manifolds 4L60E

Here are a couple more pictures showing the clearances.
These are nice "hedders" and I am happy with the fit, finish and overall appearance. I thought for sure I'd have to bang, bend, heat or persuade the headers to fit but they went right in.

I guess I neglected the drivers side for underneath shots, will try to take a few more tongiht when I finally fire it up with open "hedders"

For the record they took four beers to install :)
