I'm going to get my headers installed on monday. I remember people having trouble installing the headers w/ fitment issues and what not. Any hints and tips i should tell the mechanics on monday??? I did a search and found that i should use the stock head gaskets?? Is this true? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks In advance

i heard the obx gaskets are garbage, reuse the stockers. and i believe the bank w/ the obx logo goes on the rear.


just what i've read here.

 

aight, thanks. n e one else got any advice??

 

You could see for yourself....we should be installling them tomorrow morning with the pros

 

u down to do em tommorw brian??

 

ok he s right.. obx badge is the rear manifold and normally it would take u a while to make the A pipe line straight with the 2 manifolds but.. dont worry, just play with the screws and eventually u will get it done .. it takes time =)

 

Use a lot of metal lube (WD40)

 

If you have mechanics to do the job, let them worry about it, I did and they figured it out!

 

My partner is a progect manager for the Detroit Diesel series 60 line.

What he does at work is more critical than an 8 bolt header install.

Therfore, He is doing mine......

 

Do a search or ask Dustbuster4, when we installed his, we detailed it and archived it here. We shall do another one when I get mine installed - with pics of course, and log it into the forum for future reference.
