2) briefly what do i have to do to install the long tube type headers. done it tons of times on old camaros.
do i have to remove motor mounts bolts and lift the motor up?
3) how do i remove briefly the rear air ducts to cool the rear brakes . I want to remove it to paint a rocker panel?

I would not trust anything but a reprogramming done with LS1 edit or equivalent with the car on a dyno for testing
2) briefly what do i have to do to install the long tube type headers. done it tons of times on old camaros.

No, you don't have to move the engine or anything. You really do have to have the car on a lift to get under it well, and in fact a lift where you can move it up and down to get under and then over it really helps.
3) how do i remove briefly the rear air ducts to cool the rear brakes . I want to remove it to paint a rocker panel?

I don't recall. You might think about just masking the things well and then painting-- I recall when I had the rear wheel wells tubbed they were nasty to get out and in again.
