Make sure you remove the old ones first.

I find that is the easiest way.

To modify the stock cat::link from pacemaker website..

http://www.pacemaker.com.au/FittingInstructionPDF/PH%204499.pdf

Go buy some 2.5in flanges from a exhaust shop if your going to cut it off and weld yourself.

To get mine on I had to loosen the steering bit and pull it out... The metal rod from the steering to the steering rack... There was absolutely no way for me to fit mine without taking that out and putting it back in --- This is a NO CAT system mind you, so the headers are longer maybe....

The 8cyl El/AU falcons I have seen at drag strip in Mackay(palmyra), Qld get some pretty good times, especially the series 2/3 AU 5spd XR8. ( they are a weapon )
