Headers!

[Leonthefaded]

My Black Ceramic coated headers w/downpipe just came in. They look pretty legit if I do say so.They came with the retaining bolts but not the mounting bolts. I cant wait to install them, I think the only thing holding me from installing them is that I want to use new bolts not the old ones, maybe colored ones if I can find them before the autoparts store closes. Is that weird? Not bad for 68 bucks plus shipping to hawaii.

I must be missing something. I only see one header.

Anyways you could probably pick brand new grade 8 or 10 stainless bolts at your local auto parts or hardware store for >10$ Get some lock washers too.

As I am still a aspiring mechanic, are locking washers better than normal ones?

Something caught my eye as I was lifting my car and placing it on my jackstands. Either something is supposed to be connected here or what I dunno maybe somone far more knowledgable can indentify.

Thanks, you got me the answers before I could find it in my online chilton book.
knowing that is gonna come in handy one day.

I have a mixture of fear and excitment as I ready for the installation. I'l be sure to snap some pictures, maybe I can do a full write up for this whole shabang! its problably already been done but alot of pictures always makes a big difference at least when it came to me learning.

Anyone else got some ebay exahust system parts?

Lock washers are just split washers. Just make sure you have washers on the bolts. They help put the bolt's torque over a wider area. Makes a better seal.

Oh hell yeah thans for the info!

I'm fricken stuck on getting the O2 sensor off.... its killing me and I'm losing daylight

I just finished cleaning up my car port. tomorrow I'll go into detail what happened.

Before I go remember this. Ebay IS worth it. Sometimes you have to modify things to get them to fit right. I came close to giving up but then I learned how to use a tap and dye set .

This is kind of like asking us if you should bring a sweater when you leave the house. It's entirely up to you

My 2¢ says you should keep it if you can. Spare parts are worth their weight in gold.

I suppose I could clen it up real good poslish it out...
