Man shorties must be way way easier.

We had three people doing the longtubes, didn't change much. It's a long and grueling task that you have to take very slowly if you don't want to muck everything up.

I assume. Only thing I know about the LTH is the extended O2 that takes time. But shorties are just bolt up and attach test pipes. No clearance issues. Mmmmm. Now that I picture it i can see how bolting up the LT would be a pain. Especially the bottom bolts and bolts in the rear being the pipes are long and most likely in the way.

Exactly.

Add in to it that they're ceramic coated and you're warned over and over to touch the coating as little as possible and to even try to install it while it's inside a damned plastic bag... Yeah.

And I actually have to take mine off so I can wrap them and put them back on to get my under hood temps under control.

Going to be awful, since I don't have a lift this time.
