I found installing headers on Fits a few times it helps to have a socket wrench with a adjustable head (that tilts at angles) and is at least 10-12" long for leverage. A 14MM 6-sided deep socket and a short 3" extension should make your header install job MUCH easier.
Because of limited space behind the engine your gonna have a tough time getting a torque wrench down there. Just re-tighten with the socket wrench evenly using your best judgement.
Good luck.
