Thanks for recording this process. Looks like fun and PITA also. The end game is satisfaction and your first road test. Great Jon!

Well done! You made a difficult job look easy.

You have given my limited mechanic skills a false sense of security.

Lol that's my exact intention, hopefully this will give you that bit of confidence needed to push you into attempting it 😁.
It is a pita ..... but doable

Thanks guys, it's not perfect and I'm sure others have tricks on better/easier ways to do it but ....this is how I managed to get through it ( cussing and bad humor) lol

Thanks for taking the time to do that. Any idea of the weight savings?

Yes I actually did weigh them, the stock headers were 21 pounds each and the OBX headers were 9 pounds each

Nice video Chris! You’re a natural and I enjoyed the entertainment too. Thanks for taking time to share. It’s been 15 years since I did headers on my first Z. Ready to tackle this 95 soon. I’ll be sure to give the heat shields the “finger”.
