I found one thread That a member did and made it sound easy with no fitment issues. Talking with a shop today of installing the MBRP headers and I can tell they really do not want to install them they are pushing another brand. They said they would install the MBRPs for $600 a month ago and now tell me $900 because they installed some and tech had problems with fitment issues. So I am probably going to do this myself and take the shop pricing games out of the equation. I am looking for the best price on these headers and would like to support forum vendors. Here is the thread I searched and found. http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45900&highlight=MBRP+header+install

I'm probably going with them as well, I already have the MBRP cat back. I plan on doing them with a Paxton Beefcake special. I did find a video review on YouTube also, it was about the fitment & quality. The guy said for the money it was one of the best headers with a really nice thick flange.
Cheapest price I found them: http://www.autoaccessoriesgarage.com/img/vendor/lg/63/S7230304.jpg
If any vendors offer them for a better price please send me a pm.

I had a ford tech buddy install mine and he had no issues. It would have been faster if the exhaust had cooled down more. They fit fine. It took him about 4 1/2 hours on a lift. Beefcake will have the best price.

Your link only produces a pic? But thank you for trying.

Nice to hear. I got a price of $1050 shipped which is high.

i have not seen issue with any brand of headers, for whatever reason the pypes seem to go on the easiest, same as 11-14, but no issues with any of them if you know what your doing

have quite a few members with the mbrp and no issue

Depending on your location and shop preference.. my friend just took his to have his MBRP long tubes put on the other day - Tuesday. The shop did have fitment issues with the passenger side header so it took an extra day to get them both on. They charged $700 - prob their avg price.

Other than this instance I haven't heard of any MBRP LT header fitment issues either.

What shop is that? $700 is a good price.

Talked with a shop and they said that passenger side was to tight and rubbing they ended up moving engine over a bit.
