LT Headers... the driver's side bitch...
 
Longtube headers.

Jeebus.. "should fit like a puzzle"

Wasted a few hours figuring this out, eventually got it in. LT's are a do once and don't f with it again kind of mod. I'm waiting on building up my true duals now.

What a marathon Saturday. Here's the lowdown for 15 hours of wrenching it. My back hurts, my hands are cut, and I'm lovin it!

QTP Ceramic coated Longtube headers
ARP header studs
BMR Adjustable panhard rod
BMR Panhard relocation kit
BMR Tunnel Brace/Driveshaft loop
T-56 rebuild with the works
(billet keys, bronze fork pads, steel 3-4 shift fork, carbon fibre blockers, new 1-4 syncros)
Master cylinder replaced with 01-02 drill mod

Good job. Looks like you've had a busy time.

The DS header will go in much faster next time lol. Poke it straight up then turn it horizontal heh.

How do you like the fitment of the BMR stuff? Any problems with the DS loop?

SladeX Apr 22, 2007 12:06 PM

BMR stuff went in ok, couldn't use all the new bolts for the panhard relocation so old ones had to be reused. Everything else pretty much fit like a glove.

I won't be doing headers for awhile that's for sure.

do you get the qtp hvmc's, hows the passegners side clearance near the k-member?

SladeX Apr 22, 2007 10:05 PM

yep, the hvmc is on all qtp headers now.

the clearance after being installed is amazing. No touching in that respect, I have almost an inch space for the oil filter too.

thats good to hear, for some reason my passengers side number 2 cyclinder is right on the k-memeber area.
