Got snake,
When you get ready to connect your header springs I found this to be a easy way. First place a light inside the fender well where the headers are so you can see the tabs for the springs. Hook the spring on the header side tab, take a piece of electrical wire prox 14/16 gauge about 24" long. Bend it in a loop and slide it from the outside of the car through the side pipe cut out hole in the fender. Hook the loop in the wire to the hook in the spring and from the outside of the car just pull on the wire until the spring has expanded enough to slip over the tab on the side pipe.
Once the spring is in place release one side of the wire and just slide it out.
It sure beats trying to fight with pliars inside the fender well.
