I bought some Summit Shorty headers inchrome finish for my car. Blah blah chromewon't last, I am broke and it was a good bolton for now and cheap at only 140 dollars.
I have heard of people having to dropkmembers and lifting the enignes to put in headers on other cars, I didn't even take off the H-pipe!!!
All I did was take out all of the header bolts, which took about 20 min for both sides, using airtools on passenger side but only hand tools on the drivers(due to bitchy neighbors) including loosening the smog tubes and air intake tract. I climbed underneath the car and unbolted the hpipe from the headers in about 10 min and then jimmied the stock headers up and out from above.
Then the passenger side new header went in easily, with the driver'sside taking a little manuevering to get it around the dipstick, I also had to bend the dibstick-tube bracket to go in between the header tubes, but no biggie. Then I torqued the blts down and got everythingin.
I would just like to say that the Summit brand headers are AWESOME lol. I am just excited, I know you get what you pay for, but the fitment on these badboys is second to none!!
