Parts Needed for Header Install?
Parts Needed for Header Install? I just ordered some Hooker longtubes and I want to know what other parts I am gonna need for the install.
So far I have these....
1) O2 Sims
2) header gaskets (where do I get them)
3) locking header bolts
What else will I need?
thanks in advance.

Re: Parts Needed for Header Install? You can re-use the header gaskets and the header
bolts, Caution make sure that the bolts will not
bottom out.. this depends on the hooker flange.
Use a dremell tool or wire brush to clean stock
bolts if you use them.
You will need AIR tube gaskets, and EGR gaskets
if you have EGR.. you may need to block off the
header EGR if your car is 2001+
If the stock O2 sensors for the headers are not
long enough then you may need extenders.
The sims just plug right in..
I would bet that you will have to remove the coil packs and spark plugs.. dont for get to put anti-seize on them when re-installing.
here is a bunch of partnumbers if you need them.
