I love 5.0's: header install!

  • Sponsors (?)


on shorties its easier to just pull the dipstick out and the header will be easier to install.

and be sure to go back and tighten them again.

when i install new gaskets i tighten them down nice, drive it around, get the car hot and warmed up park the car and whiles its still hot tighten the header bolts again, they should turn more now that they are hot.

then let it cool. then drive it normally

then a couple days later i check them again while its hot, sometimes they like to come loose, just tighten them down again hot and they should be good to go.
 
Well I can feel/hear an exhaust leak that I will have to adress. It is on the pass. side where the header meets the H. I am getting a litlle backfiring so I'll def. have to pull the H forward a lil better to mate tothe headers.
 
i didnt read anything in this entire thread. NO ONE CARES YOU DOUCHE we dont care about you having to go hide from your (sexually) abusive dad and install your lame headers. i hope you have all kinds of exhaust leaks. na, just kidding. now try installing some long tubes.
