318 dress up 89' w100
Pretty easy if you do alot of research before hand and can remove the exhaust piping yourself. You may also need to remove the valve covers if you cant reach the manifolds.
Just unscrew the exhaust manifolds and drop the headers on. With the end bolts in place, the gasket can be dropped into position. Get all of the header bolts started before you tighten any of them or you'll be sorry! You may also want to put a dollop of antiseizing compound on the header bolts before hand.

JEGS 30082 - JEGS Tubular Headers??
What about a o2 sensor thread insert(weld bungs)? the ones i see are 18mm, i thought the sensor was 22mm??

alright now i have some questions
on those headers they either say for off road or racing only. Why? Does that mean they cant be used on the road? Also, the ones from summit say to use oxy sensor use a header reducer?? Im a little confused on this too? Shed some light?

If anyone does the header swap,would you please post it on here and tell us how it went? I recently ran true duals on my 87 and it sounds and runs alot better.I am seriously considering headers as my next project but I`m concerned about trying to loosen the manifold bolts that have been attached to my heads for the last 21 years.
So since my truck is 89' I need an air tube hookup, I need to find headers that have that?
would the reducer weld onto the header or where would it go?
