Thread: headers..

i was wondering if there is a how to for installing headers, because i want to get new ones but i would have no idea where to start

so you're not really mechanically inclined i take it?

if not, i dont really recommend doing it by yourself.

mostly because things can go wrong and you need to be able to solve them on your own.

well is there anyway to do it without having to use an engine lift?

you dont need a lift, just a jack and two axle stands and you'll be golden.

Put the rear mani in, then the downpipe assy then the font mani and you're done.

and all i have to do is loosen all the bolts.. seems too easy

trust, its time consuming and a giant PITA

ill prob do it in the summer while i have my bike just incase it takes more than a day

true that

i agree ^^

but yes everyting is bolt on if you buy the right ones

1. remove downpipe
2. remove front mani
3. remove crossover
4. remove rear header

installation differs between the brands

oh ya good luck with exhaust bolts because they suck!

True that...the numerous heating and cooling cycles they go through makes em about impossible to get them off..especially without breaking them.

I would soak the bolts down with liquid wrench or pb penetrating oil a couple days before you decide to do it. I've heard it make it MUCH easier to get them out.
