Default Local Jax Guys, Help Wanted, will pay.

Heres the deal, the back bolt on the passenger side header came out, dont know how I guess it wasnt tight enough. I'm willing to pay $50 cash if you come and replace it. (Coil packs are still on)

Also my drivers side collector is to close to the floorpan for me to get the y-pipe on, any recomendations besides taking it to a muffler shop(it's stainless and most shops cant weld stainless).

PM me if your interested.

Thanks
~Jordan

Jordan did the bolt break or come out and you need someone to go back and tighten it? Well If only that one bolt is broken dont worry about it. I ran my car with a broken bolt on the driver side it was the last bolt as well.

I have the xs stainless headers, im not sure which company they copied but there is no way to get at that bolt from underneath unless the 6spd has more room to work with under there.
