These are detailed high quality pics of my front header. My back wasn't available for pics.
WARNING-Please do not post if all you want to say is how shitty my welds are or how bad the piping itself looks. I tought myself how to weld a day prior to welding these. Grabbed a welder and some spare pipe and went to work. I only want constructive critisism, comments, questions, and props where deserved. RacerX11, SappySE107, DykZ34, Bowtiekid, PLEASE respond for I trust your advice.
Now for the pics. One of the pipes didn't align quite right as you can see, but before I put it in the car I cut the weld, repositioned, and rewelded it. Works great. They come into the collecter at an angle, but that was on purpose. They may not look it, but they are equal lengh. The only modifications I have needed to make for them to fit is to cut off the bracket that holds on the bolt to the passenger side of the airbox. No biggy and I didn't even NEED to do that, it was more to avoid contact with it witch could harm the pipe. I also needed to redesign the upper radiator line, havn't done that yet. The header clears the fans, clears the ignition, and clears everything else. I really like it, I have since cleaned up the welds and it is getting chromed. The collector sits about 3/4" above the tranny, I wanted it lower to clear the 96 Throttle Body, but no can do. The header fell rigth into its place. It was SO easy to install. I had to remove the radiator support(3 bolts), both fans, radiator line, airbox, plenum, exhaust from downpipe up, dogbone mount, and I can't remember anything else. I am going to use the heat shield off the front manifold to guard the ignition, as the bottome pipe comes within an inch of it. I'll turn it upside down, adn the bolts line up directly and it fits the pipe's proflie well. I havn't made the downpipe yet, but soon. I will not be selling these, there is no opportunity for any profit. Maybe Bowtiekid will though. My back ones require a bit more modding to fit that I do not want to share at this time. So thanks for all of your support and advice, and DykZ34, FUCK YOU
Sorry if they take forever to load, this Starphoto thing is hosting WAY too many pics, it takes forever and a day to upload a pic.
