The driver's side is more difficult if I remember because you have to work a couple of the bolts in at the same time if the tubes block them from getting started at a straight angle. Did you get new gaskets? If not, you should probably get new gaskets because you will need to loosen all the header bolts and pull the header away from the head to get the old bolts out and the new ones in at a straight angle. I've used the Stage 8 bolts on 3 cars now and I think they are worth it. Be prepared to file down some of the locks to get them to line up with the bolt and the header tube, but it's not that big of a deal. The locks are easy, the clips are a pita.
