Well the #1 primary of my Jet Hot header is touching the shield that guards the brake lines. Will the lines be fine or do I have to move them, and if i do, how can I go about it without screwing things up?

Thanks

 

My friend was driving and burnt thru the hard brake lines....I would move them ASAP. He has the same headers you have by the way.

 

Mine's also touching a line. What's a good way to bend these without kinking/hurting them? Anyone

 

I poped mine off of the clips on the strut tower next to the primary, then took that heat shield and flated it out and shaped it so it came about 2 inches away. When i bring my car out, I"ll be making a new shield out of Thicker steel, and wraping it and the brake lines in thermal barrier tape. I recommend doing this to any ABS wiring as well.

 

So you just bent yours by hand slowly? I was thinking about using a brass pipe bender

 

errrrrrrr, I just bent my heat sheild back a bit...


Cmr0z28- you have any pics, I'd have to see how bad his was :\

 

Sorry, I don't have any pics, but the result was him stuck on the way to work, and several hundred dollars in repairs

 

did he not have a heat sheild on it??

I'm still trying to see how this happened to him, got me kinda nervous.

 

no, i just reshaped the heat shield using a hammer and dolly. it took 5 test fits till i was happy with it.
