Hey guys i have a header leak on the slip-fit primary on my longtubes and i cant seem to get the stage 8 bolts off to fix it. What do u guys use an allen wrench? I dont think a normal wrench can fit in there. Please help

 

Use the right size allen wrench.

 

It depends which bolt and how much room you have to work with. On several of my bolts I can use a ratchet with an allen wrench head to loosen/tighten them, on the others I have to use an open wrench shaped like a "C" (crescent wrench?).

 

kinda off topic , but did you guys use that anti-seize stuff on the sliptube?

 

JKDZ28, After posting about this for a week or so most people seem to use RTV high-temp selant or a small exhaust clamp for the slip-fit primary so thats what im gonna try for my slip-fit leak.

 

Yeah, a 1/4" drive ratchet with an allen wrench socket is good to have for Stage 8s and so is the proper size (7/16 if I remember right) ignition wrench. Or you may be able to grind enough material off an open end wrench to fit it in some tight spots.

 

so no RTV stuff if i got the clamps???



i got the clamps!!!!
