I went with the madman's limiters...they know their **** so I am hoping they will work put nicely...

yeah pics would be great...never hurts to see a bunch of them mounted...

haha you like that catback...just a couple bolt ons...how fast can it be, it still has the stock exhaust lol...I pull it at the track with 2 bolts and v band clamps to an open y pipe...

drag bar is the spohn bolt in...no complaints besides it being close to the stock shocks haha...yeah still rockin stock shocks and springs in the back

I dunno I bet about 8-10hp down...three of them are pretty jacked up...maybe I will strap it on the dyno sometime next week and see how much of a loss it is causing and make a decision from there...those dents are just velocity spikes right??? think it will put down more power...reverse stepped headers lol
nope no videos or pics...no one can help a brother out , kind of last minute I guess...that video would have been worth all the damage forsure

thanks man I will...you have some 1 7/8 arh I can borrow...

I think I am just going to throw robs 1 7/8 kooks on and see how they fit...maybe add some extensions on them...

Fix the headers, heres how.

Go buy a 1 7/8 trailer ball( or whatever your tube size is, turn it down where it fits in the header tube. Weld a solid steel 1/2 rod on it about 18-24 inches long.

Take the collector off, heat the tube cherry red and drive the trailer ball up into the tube the push it back out.

thouse looks pretty bad, like 70% of the wall thickness is on on the track. I bet he was going 50-65 mph when the car fell on them.

I htink you could cut the scraped sections out, and cut that profile out of another tube. Looks like there room to get a little tig torch between them. If you have to get into changeing that tube section out, you have to grind the welds, pull the collectors off. Cut the tubes off the head flange to get around them to weld, and re weld the header back together huge pain. You must have came donw hard, The marks I get on that header are the colletor weld and the flat in the tube in front of that. Not UP the bend, did your lower rad mounts bottom out? how bad is the front bumper?

Digging the z28 catback for sure. you have any pics of how you did the Vbands for the quick removal at the track? I want to do somthing like that, I have a SS catback in great shape I've been wanting to get on the car. I have the 2OTL off right now to move a muffalr a little for the TRZ anit roll bar, so this is the time. (gona drop the tank and pull the evap too)

that's not a bad idea...i might get a nice ball bearing to try out...

have you tried this before with stainless headers...

also I know I can rip some 1 7/8 tube in half and then remove the bottom halfs of the headers and retig the covers on...just don't know if I want to tackle all that now this late in the 4 quarter....

we will see what happens the car is getting straightened out this friday/saturday and aligned too...looks nice the frame might be okay but the k member is the bent piece...I can't even image what it would look like with a single tube style...the double wall also saved the pan...glad I went with the umi

Sucks to hear about the damage. I was looking forward to seeing you run at atco too, for sure you would see 9's here with our magic air.

iTrader: (67)

elmer....i had no idea you could run that fast....

ski23 drove my car in front of chris on that pass to put down some rubber....so i could watch the wheelie....me & elmer were right behind chris"s car on launch standing on the line.... watching the cars rear bumper getting closer & closer to the track....until all daylight was gone & it was on the bumper.

it was a beautiful sight......except the damage to the car....

i dont know if its just me or what,but that rear bumper is a metal of honor.

Yeah nice wheelie and awesome et for stock shortblock. The limiters will help calm the frontend down alot. I have a set of Madmans limiters on my car and it makes all the difference when leaving hard. I was talking to some friends about unhooking the limiters and see how high the car wheelies but those pics are disturbing to the wallet. LOL Later

why not just tighten the extension down? you mentioned they were pretty loose?

chrs1313

iTrader: (24)

I added a few clicks to the shocks but it obviously wasn't enough...the limiters will help this problem...not too worried...
