Jim,

ZZZZZR1 (Dave Johnson) just installed a set on his 94, I've had a chance to see them and they look great. Dave will have to chime in on the install.

I can tell you one thing, they must flow pretty good because they spit out the guts of one of his brand new Random Cats!

Tell em Dave!

Dave didn't install a set. Stainless works installed them.

And it wasn't the flow that spit the guts out of the cat. The cat was either damaged, or the motor was dumping fuel and killed the cat.

Love the headers and yes Jeff, I didn't install them(thanks SW). Unsure how the cat got blown out, but SW has offered to replace it.

JVD mentioned he had issues with a dipstick, but has anyone else had issues? If so, speak up! Only issue I have heard of thus far was an installer had issues with the EGR, but SW walked it thru on the phone (first time install for the installer).

re: dipstick

I put SW headers on my 90 a little over a year ago. The dipstick would not line up properly without a slight mod.

Remove (unweld) the mounting bracket midway up the dipstick tube. After you get the headers installed, put the dipstick tube in, then align it to the best bolt on the headers. Mark where you need to reweld the mounting bracket, touch up with some black paint, and reinstall. Be sure to use a new grommet on the bottom.

Forgive the poor instructions above. I'm not the most mechanically able but once you look at it and how it works, it should be fairly obvious on how to do it. I had a friend with a welder help me and I think it took him all of 5 minutes to made the mod.

Good luck,

George

I put a set of SW headers on just before Carlisle and all went smooth. Even got all 28 bolts in to. Used Jeffvette's tip on how to bolt down the dipstick.

I just had a set installed last week on a 90, along with a Heiback Performance Chip. The only problem the installer had was w/ the EGR which he worked through w/ a call to SW as Dave mentioned in a previous post. The car runs and sounds awesome.

I don't understand about the dipstick

I have Jeal headers and the dipstick is mounted between cylinder #4 and #2 header tubes to the top second screw(front to back cylinder #2 tube)
I just have to use one of the facory spacers.

What is the dipstick problem with the SW's?
