Default Installing Kooks 1 7/8, ORY, Hooker Catback

and polly engine mounts, so far I got the engine mounts and the driver side header in, not to bad.

Now trying to line up the passenger side purch bolt hole is kicking my ***

I'm also going to try weighing the Jet Hot's and the Kooks, the Kooks feel so much lighter

So far so good, hopefully I'll have in done tomorrow, wasted a lot of time fighting that damn purch

Thanks, I got everthing done, loosen the drivers side mount lift the whole engine, lined up both purches , good to go.

Now the passenger side header needed to have the last bolt hole drilled bigger, the Y-pipe was kinda of a pain, had to beat the hell out of under side and it's still touching and vibrating


It's kinda weird having a catback again, but it sounds pretty good a side from the y-pipe banging
