American Racing Headers are installed It was cold and snowing and around 25 degrees, but had no problems just sticking the headers right into place. Very impressed with ARH and their catted Y. I have the Loudmouth 1 with the ARH and alot of the drone and rasp that some complained about are gone. Either way I love the sound.

The tapping was fixed. The air tube bolt was stripped. Just the usual seat of the pants feel! Sure does seem like it!
So far everything is great. No missing, no codes, and it runs strong. My mechanic has already contacted me to stop by and he will check everything out for me after I put some miles on it. But the Mechanic who works on it is named John and he is in Warrenton, VA. I'll pm you his info. Not a sponsor.
Other than the driver side air tube, 1 bolt was stripped, but just put a nut on it and that was it. The headers were Great. I just made sure I had it jacked high. That's all it was.So to answer you, No problems with the install!

Too bad you didn't have one of those little electric heaters. It could've made it a lot more comfortable.

[QUOTE=allngn_c5;10970801] Would you believe I never even thought of something like that! I have one at work
I was going to wait also, but my boy had allready pulled the stock manifolds off while I was inside thawing out. Then when I got home from work he was waiting on me again! I'm 49, I couldn't wait any longer
You are 100 % correct!

lol The best part is I was not rushed, but wanted the headers on!LOL! not my D/D anymore, but I drive it every day it's clear! Yea it was too cold, but the Headers were such a great fit that I couldn't stop! Just ordered a Underdrive Pulley so, might have to get the tent ready again cause rain and snow is coming again!
