Headers!?

[Harrison]

Can you take the header off and only the header? Obviously you need to take the heat shield off but other then that is it pretty easy?

its header and yes, it simple, its a matter of just unbolting it, but prepare to use some pb blaster or wd40 for some of the bolts

^ (no sarcasm through this whole thing just giving you an idea) why dont you just take you lights off and sand them down with 1000 grit sandpaper and paint translucent apple red. or if you have your stock tail lights you can do them as well. i did my 92-93 like that and they came out fabulous. you can get the paint in the model section at walmart or micheals or something.

It's not the toughest job but without the right tools it can turn into a nightmare. I'd recommend a deepsocket with 6 points instead of 12. Use pb blaster and let it soak for a good one then pry the exhaust manifold nuts out.

Yeah thats pretty random, when the name of the thread is HEADER?!@ haha some people do way to much crack these days.

Thanks for the tips though guys. The reason I was asking is because I was thinking of covering my header with some heat wrap tape.

I guess my next question is, is covering it with heat wrap tape a pretty good thing to do? and if so what kinds are recommended??

[LinX]

It'll help keep the temp down especially for stainless steal applications as compared to ceramic coated ones. I'm pretty sure you will void the warranty if the header came with one though.

thats what the heat shield is there for

you want to do this to a stock header?

Is that a waist? I thought that keeping the temp down was good so I figured I could just wrap my stock header in the tape for now untill I can afford to get a different one. Am I wrong?

Careful with the heat wrap tape... you need to wrap the header really tightly. If you don't, you will end up with a corroded through header. This will happen especially with stock non-coated headers.

I would just leave the stock setup alone unless you are gonna get another setup all together.

dont waste your time....wait till u get an aftermarket header
