Default Finally doing headers...

<img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> Ok, today is the day. We will be starting things tonight and finishing up tomorrow. Putting TTS headers with off road pipes on the car. Also, poly bushings all around and 32 mm sway bar in front.

Any tips, tricks, time savers..... anything that you can make me aware of?

Ok, so I'm feeling a little animated.......!

Thanks!!

My tip: Have at least a cold six pack waiting at the end of the job.

good luck <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

I got so mad at my SLP's I paid someone to do it. I hope you have better luck than I did. <img src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" border="0" alt="[chug]" /> <img src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" border="0" alt="[chug]" /> <img src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" /> <img src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" /> <img src="gr_tounge.gif" border="0"> <img src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" /> I'm feeling animated also. <img src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" border="0" alt="[devil]" /> :

Well, we are finishing tomorrow. The ARP studs we have are just a tad too big to fit in the flanges. Besides that, smooth sailing. We actually did not have that much trouble with getting the drivers side in!

Stay away rain... I want a good test drive!!! <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

Well, the rain came but that is ok.

We started the car with open headers. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> <img src="gr_tounge.gif" border="0">

Oh <img src="gr_tounge.gif" border="0"> Yeah!!

That sound is embedded in my brain forever!!

We also added a tranny mount. She is going to be a whole new beast when I get her back and I can't wait. <img src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" border="0" alt="[devil]" />

Ok, I'll shut up now......

Your gonna love those headers. I remember when I put my FLPs on. I couldn't stop doing this. <img src="graemlins/camaro.gif" border="0" alt="[Chevrolet]" /> <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">

The increase in torque down low and power up high is PHENOMENAL. <img src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" />

Awww...but its raining outside, no test drive for you. <img src="gr_tounge.gif" border="0">
