I Need Some Help Installing my SLP Headers
I Need Some Help Installing my SLP Headers I just bought SLP's LT headers and Y-pipe about two week ago and i am thinking about installing them next weekend. Can you guys give me any suggestions to make the install easier.
Re: I Need Some Help Installing my SLP Headers Do a search on "slp header" and look through all the old post. There is a wealth of information. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> You will need it if your headers are like the 85% of them that I have read about on here. They seem to be a bear to install so allow plenty of time and maybe a friend to help.
Do the search and read up, it is the best thing you can do. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: I Need Some Help Installing my SLP Headers One tip go to this page http://communities.msn.com/RichardsB...st.msnw?Page=7 look at the photos in the middle line. They are a heat sheld I made to cover the wires. You can see them in this photo.

If you don't take car to protect these wires your life will suck until you fix the wires. The headers touch the orange wrap and if not done right will melt the wires and you car will not run. I made a heat shield to help cover it. But as you can tell my heads where off. You will have to lift your car as high as possible. The passenger side will go in pretty easy. the drivers side you will have to take the steering knuckle off and maybe lift the motor toward the passenger side. Take out your plugs before you start. Dont put the O2's in until the header are installed.
