What do I need for header install?
Hey guys,
OBX headers are on the way. I understand that I need some sort of extension for the O2 sensors and some sort of mod for the dipstick. Help with specifics? Thanks in advance! |

Re: What do I need for header install?
It's been way too long since I installed my headers for me to remember what's needed but I do remember that I looked at old posts on this site for tips. It was pretty straightforward and the hard part was removing the manifolds with the related heat shields.

MONEY..... Because then it's an upgraded exhaust.... A port job..... a couple of cams....a New chip.... new half shafts....... Maybe a new rear end ratio.....Then tires..... Then more tires.... It's a disease with No known cure...But You will have a smile on your face.

Re: What do I need for header install?
I've made a few dozen of the dipstick brackets for guys installing headers. I just finished a batch. They're pretty simple, but work like a charm - one PIA you'll not have after you install the headers!
So, if you need one, PM me with your address. Paul

Buy Paul's dipstick relocation bracket.
My headers rubbed on my stering shaft. We ended up jacking the motor and shimming the motor mounts. |

Thanks for your help on the dipstick bracket, Paul!
Can anyone tell me exactly what I need for the O2 sensors? Thanks! |
