DIY: Stillen header installation

vactor · 04-19-2010, 05:11 PM

i'm just wondering why it's so hard to make a set of headers that have perfect fitment? i mean, really, how hard can it be to make them so that they line up with the factory exhaust???

^^ i also have the saem question nothing aftermarket seems to ever fit right. there is stuff out there that works but more times then not it doesnt work

this doesnt look that bad to do. i did headers on my 95 firebird. you want to talk about a pita? it took me about 3-4 hours to get ONE side in. and that was the easy side. and i also went to school and worked at two dealers and still had problems. if you decide to tackle something like this def have someone that knows what they are doing right next to you and make sure you have all the right tools to do so.
