   Its been a few years but it was straight forward, they have great support if you have questions along the way. Key to me is organizing tools, laying everything out and clean everything really good before you start. Only thing I altered was a header tube to get the angle I wanted for the power steering linkage. That was by choice though. If you haven't removed the original suspension already I would maybe get a hand with spring removal if you aren't experienced with them.Thanks for the comment and good luck with your build!

	interesting! I will have to contact arh about that, I got jack squat for clearance and want to get there 1 3/4 headers over the winter. Color is avalanche grey - ford used it on the gt 350 around 2019.My Javelin already had an engine & tranny swapped when I got it along with drums all around so I made it into what I wanted.. no regrets and its safer with the power its making.

	yah if you order the headers be prepared to wait....i think it took mine 7/8 weeks to build...they just got sent off and sc397 should be getting them on thursday.. he is the guy graciously and thankfully building my engine.... but i kept emailing ARH....every week after a month asking on the status....on one i said .. i like how your being really careful but when you're tig welding 1 tube every 5 days.......thats being really really careful....so do you have any status on date...finally some lady got ahold of me.....they will be shipped out on the 26th.. LOL
