    I've read that some guys use a ratchet strap to help ease the process of installing their rear header. Anyone have any advice on where to put the straps. Photos would also be a great help.

    Yup, put one of the dog bone bolts back in on the engine, hook ratchet strap up to the bolt, and hook other side to one of the holes on above the radiator, ratchet it up...works great..I don't think I have any pics though.
