Is there anything else i am going to need to do this. Does anyone know what type of blade i should use on the sawzall for the exhaust pipe and the tranny ear? And any other helpful hints would be appreciated!!

well im only 18 but..
I live on a college campus so it makes it okay. thanks on the antiseize and do you know what size sockets ill need?

 

[HemiRamOn22s]

mine were 11 or 13mm i do believe. But it could be different

 

[daytona1191]

ok so just standard wrenches!

 

[daytona1191]

do i need a torque wrench for the header bolts or just torque them tight with a regular ratchet??

You may be able to torque a couple of bolts, but most will have to be tightened with wrench. You also might find that the O2 bung on the passenger side is pointing straight up, bending the heat shield might give clearence, or like me you will need to have a new bung welded in the right location. One bolt hole on the passenger side header may need to be oblonged to use a header bolt, or just leave it out. A metal cutting blade, bi-metal I believe is what you'll need. Good luck and have fun!!!

sounds like a great quality product. No fitment issues at all. Sorry i'm just grumpy today

 

[sawcut64]

Well it is a great performing product, probably the best performing header we have now. BUT the fitment issues SUCK, then again coated headers and y-pipe for less then $600 shipped makes up for the fitment issues...less then half the price of Dynatechs, and perform better.

hey man i was planning on getting the bung moved so instead of standing sraight up make it lean to the right or left a lil.

 

[sawcut64]

Get it welded so that it's pointed more towards the trans/engine.

 

[daytona1191]

ok thanks man, so move it from the top to more of the side pointing toward the engine?

 

[sawcut64]

Yes but you might want to test fit it first to get it in the right spot.

 

[daytona1191]

ok will do
