Check the mounting tabs/hoops to make sure the welds aren't cracking. They look awesome.

I've read here somewhere that it's a good idea to take a large (long) file, and square the tops of the inlets even with each other to get a good seal at the exhaust ports. Make sure that the old copper gaskets were removed from the exhaust port. And I haven't tried it yet, but I hear that using a small amount of red RTV to hold the new copper gaskets in place while installing the new HE's works pretty well. I'll be doing the same thing in a week or so. Also, you'll want to soak the hell out of the exhaust studs and nuts with PB Blaster or something similar to ease removal of the rusty-ass nuts.

P.S. - nice clean set of HE's you've got there!
