INSTALLATION
1. Starting
with the driver’s side from below, work the header up into position.
2. Slip the gasket into position and start all the supplied header bolts and lock washers. If
the car is equipped with power steering, use the original bolt with the supplied spacer in
the first hole.
3. Tighten the header bolts evenly starting from the center to a final torque of 35 ft lbs.
1. Place a floor jack under the oil pan with a flat board for support. Loosen the transmission
mount bolts. Remove the passenger side motor mount center bolt and raise the motor
approximately 2”.
2. Starting from below, work the passenger side header up through the chassis into
position. When the header is about half way in, work the starter past the header tubes in
to position and reinstall the starter bolts.
3. Carefully lower the motor back into position and replace the motor mount bolt.
4. Slip the gasket into position and start all the supplied header bolts and lock washers.
5. Tighten the header bolts evenly starting from the center to a final torque of 35 ft lbs.
6. Replace the Oil Filter, Dipstick Tube, Spark plugs and wires, and Clutch Linkage.
7. Bolt the collector reducers to the headers using the supplied gaskets, bolts, lock washers
and nuts. Cut the headpipes so they can be welded to the reducers or construct a new
exhaust to complete the system.
8. Connect the negative battery cable.
IMPORTANT CHECK LIST
Be sure that all brake lines and fuel lines are clear of headers and/or connector pipes.
All spark plug wires, battery cables, or other electrical components should be clear of
headers and/or connector pipes.
If dipstick tube was removed, make sure it is installed properly and that the dipstick has
been replaced. Check the oil level.
Double-check the tightness of all bolts including brackets and accessories.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Start the engine and allow it to warm up to operating temperature. Check for any unusual
noises or exhaust leaks. If every thing is OK, stop the engine and tighten all bolts while
the engine is still warm.
NOTE: Check the bolts periodically to make sure they have not loosened. Re-tighten
after the first 500 miles and then again at 1000 miles.
