Problem is usually the other way around. Some headers make it difficult to get to the starter. So starter on first, then headers.

Buy a new mini starter before installing the headers, and some heat wrap. Voice of bad experiences...

Ha wish I saw this before I did the install. What a freaking pain in the ass, but a learning experience. I will for sure spend the extra next time and get the mini starter.
