Hooker Longtubes with Sidemount Valvecover looms...!!
Hooker Longtubes with Sidemount Valvecover looms...!!
I just got done installing my side mount wire looms and I was going to bolt my headers up to see how they fit. Luckily I did this before trying to install the motor and then trying to install the headers!
The headers are casted so that they hit the brackets that the side mount looms attach to! So I had to modify my headers. I cut 2 small chunks out of the headers. I had to cut 90 degree angle cuts to take out a small triangle to get the headers to fit flush with the heads. This did not interupt the gasket area and is just reinforced area to hold the headers up/topgether. It was about a 1/2" piece removed, but none the less needed to be done.
Anyhow, just thought I would share just incase anyone was thinking of getting the side mount looms from thunderracing.com
