I installed my pass side pacesetter from the top. Could not get it in place going in from the bottom. Hope this helps.

You might need to jack it up a little bit
more, if you're on a lift you should get it
in easily if not you need to lift it up till
the LT does'nt hit the ground and play it
around. It might take a little bit of more
force than expected but it should go in.

Default Yes jack it up more

i had the same prob, but i just put some blocks under the jack and it let the header have a little more room to rotate and it went in fine.

I didnt have to do any of that. Just jack it up more and remove those damn aluminum sheilds!!!! That helped a bunch.

Ya I got it done, but now a spark plug is fucked up, its sticking out like 1/4 more then the others, maybe an 1/8 I dunno why the hell its like that, how much of a difference will this make? Will it misfire because of this???
