Header removal/install

[Dawgz]

I have a 2000 V6 Solara, basically the same engine / engine bay as the Camry 4rth gens....

when i looked at the rear header, im pretty sure i wont be able to get my hands to the bolts with a wrench or watever.

I need to take my headers off because they are the cali-spec (precat) headers and i wanna swap them with the non-cali (federal) headers, with a diffrent ypipe of course.



Any advice for this would be appreciated!

take a look at the shop manual and haynes manual and see what they say....I don't have the haynes manual here and I'm too lazy to look it up in the shop manual right now, so I'm not much help, I know...

but they're usually pretty thorough on letting you know how to get to things

i dont have access to either....

i think i remember somebody saying that if you jack up on the motor in the right spot a little bit it makes it a little easier. try asking javajoe 2 on the SG forum, i know he just installed his headers a few weeks ago.
