Well yesterday I was feeling pretty good and decided to start the header install.
But I didn't take anything off. All I took off was the wheel and wheel well liner off of the passenger side. Both headers went in threw the bottom. The passenger side got to a point where it would not go anymore, so grabbed my rubber mallet and persuaded it to go in. Took me about 3.5 hours to do it.
I guess because i went with 1 3/4" headers im sure with the 1 7/8" headers i would of had to lift the engine.
I still have to do the Y pipe though.
very nice! Are they coated or anything? ive been looking at OBX and pacesetter because there is no way im paying 1400 for a set of headers! That's Crazy! Let us know how they hold up down there!
Yea they have an armor coat on them. Im guessing that's pacetters ceramic coat.
I looked at OBX also and decided to go wit pacesetter because you can get a 3" Y pipe and OBX has a 2.5" y pipe. Its not a big difference but my personal preference was to have a 3".
I went ahead and got some TR-6, MSD and wire boots.
THe sound is awesome but I think it is just to loud i will be adding something to quiet it down a bit.
I have a flowmaster super 40 and it's dumped just before the axle. I love the sound and tone, but the drone is ridiculous. And I still have stock exhaust manifolds
im glad your y-pipe fit, went to put mine in and the smaller part that connects to the driver side was made backwards, they enlarged the y-pipe end to slip over the header. after waiting 4 weeks for the company to make them and ship them to me, i cant use it. got the headers in and a unusable truck for work come monday. im going to need new spark plug wires too, my stock ones are resting on the headers! what ones did you end up with ? i see they are msd's
Pacesetter does not. Even if they did, buy the kooks. I have kooks on my 10 SS and went with pacesetter for my tbss. Big mistake. Wish I had gone with kooks again. But I was saving money. Do yourself a favor and spend the money.
