Been a while since i have been on here, so hello all.

I have some SLP shorty headers on my ride and it seems that the drivers side no matter what i do they keep loosening up near the fire wall. It seems i am going through gaskets on this side from time to time. The fit underneath the car on header is very tight on this side and it puts pressure on the header from underneath. Any ideas?

 

get some 1'' arp header bolts the will get a better bite on the threads so they don't back out.

 

I will have to try that thanks.

 

hows the condition on your motor mounts?

 

I'm using Breslin split-lock header bolts, and haven't had a single bolt loosen on me.

 

They are still stock ones. I should look at them. Would it only loosen one side on the back, you think?

Hey on the breslin locking bolts , how do they work and how much are they and where to buy ect?

I am out of summer 2 @ school at last so i can work on my car bit here shortly. I am going to most likely take that side header off and possibly the pass side to diagnose a burnt wire during header install (burnt for years now)

 

I think you should maybe give them a change with new (better) bolts, with old mounts the headers coulld be in a more vulnerable position, also how often did you check the torque on the old bolts.
