Default Any Install manuals online on installing headers on an xA??

Any Install manuals online on installing headers on an xA?? I did a few different searches here but nothing specific on actually "how to" do the Job. Only thing I saw was the TC install but I have an xA.

I have decided NOT to attempt the install alone or to take it to a shop since I have allot of other stuff to get installed.

I simply had to work too hard on installing my Exhaust and am way to lazy looking at how involved this install is!!

I was worried about doing the header, but once I got in there it took less than an hour and I have not had a problem in over a year.

Just take your time and make sure you don't force any of the bolts, if you break one you will be in trouble!

I contacted americancarcraft to see what I can get from them. They only have xB and Tc stuff. I feel soooo left out! I think if your stuff is good quality $1,100 for the whole kit is a great price!!

^yeah, they sell it through scionpro and the same kit would be over $1400 now. I'm glad I bought it when I did. They should get to work on an xA kit.

I know I am going off topic on my own post They say they make no xA stuff so can you tell me what parts you think I can use on my xA like I think I could use the same Valve cover but what else??

engine cover, dipstick, and maybe the hood panel? If you know someone with an xb you could see how different the hoods are.

Yeah there is allot different but there are some things that are the same and or compatible. I am pretty sure I can use the Valve Cover, cover Not sure if anything else though. I am a bit peeved by how left out I am here from this company. Oh well.
