Default header install with s/c

hey has anyone installed a header on your car after you got a s/c put in. i'm thinking of doing it but doesn't look like there's very much room to do so with the s/c shaft in the way. can someone chime in that has done it please. and yes i did search btw.

but i have took it off and reinstall a few times.
The only problem i see could be your heat shield have no room to wrench

you dont have to take it apart. loosen bolts on the brackets holding the assembly, lift shaft...install header...replace shaft assembly.
do it. besides a pulley the header is the biggest bang for the buck on the supercharger.

just bend the heat shield a tad and it should eventually be able to be rocked off. Myself and a bunch of other people did it w/o removing the charger.
