pacesetter install help
pacesetter install help okay couple of things, i have the drivers side manifold off and i went to put the tube that goes in the top of the pacesetters but the on off of the old manifold wont fit, is there some adapter that i need or something? Also on the pass side manifold i cant seem to get in to get the last bolt off, its the one closest to the front bumper, anyone have any tips for getting this on off?
If your AIR tubes won't line up right, you may have headers from a different year model. That tube placement is the reason for there being a variance between year models while you're ordering. You can probably just bend the tubes to make them fit, but I'd junk the whole emissions system all together. Some pics of your situation would help tremendously.
As for the bolt, will it not turn? I usually use a gear wrench or my air ratchet to remove the manifold/header bolts.

The 02 drivers side AIR tube won't fit, if you want it on there, run down to the local parts store and get some heater hose, about a foot, and put that in place of the stock hose, and trim it to fit
For the front passenger side bolt, I used a 1/4 drive ratchet and a swivel socket, along with a 6 inch extension to get it off.
If it won't turn, then hit it with some PB Blaster and let it sit for an hour and try again

AIR tube
Top of header
What in the fark is up with that? lol
Only thing I can think of is to go get a threaded coupler from a hardware store. Bring the AIR tube down and match the threads. I just realized you're doing LT1 headers too.

Verdad Gallardo Yours definatly HAS emissions fittings lol. Best thing to do is call and talk to someone, I'm sure they can get the problem sorted out for you. They may not offer emissions headers for 93-95 cars?
Okay wtf, i dont know how the hell you guys got a wrench to get that damn last bolt out, my deep socket wont fit by the fender wall, and my extension/ air ratchet wont hit the bolt cuz of the AIR tube coming up from underneath. HOW THE HELL DO I GET THIS BOLT OFF
ive been using a gear wrench and there isnt enough room, i have maybe a 1/2 in to work with that the gear wrench will go and it keeps slipping off the bolt, i dont know if the damn thing is stripped or not.

Your doing this through the bottom of the car I assume. Just be patient. I had to use a boxed wrench and it took some time. Dont try to rush cuz them you might miss something and then it will be more of a hassle.....
Id get a girl to help you, my lady was able to put her hands in all of the areas where I couldn't.
Post up some more pics of that air tube, I know theirs fittings which you can use to pullem together. Take it easy.
