Header Install Help This Weekend Anyone?

Well i'm going to try to do my headers this weekend (hopefully) . 12/11/04

Just wondering if there was anyone in the area that might be able to help me out, never done them before, if my friend cant find time. My friend was going to help me out but hes pretty much busy all weekend and i've had these headers waiting to go in for about 5+ months lol.

It's in garland pretty much. I'm sure we can work something out. Rather you want to help me for free! ( sorry had to try) or we can work out some kind of payment for the help.


Hopefully i can get theses suckers in soon and see if beat my friends ls1 and my other friend's stang.

car is a 97 LT1 a4 btw Hooker Long tubes going in.

Huh? I have to get rid of the stock y-pipe and when they put my exhaust on they welded the cat back to my stock y-pipe. So inturn to even get the y-pipe of i would have to either remove the whole system or just cut it free from the y-pipe.

Re: Header Install Help This Weekend Anyone?

have a small blowtorch to break the weld maybe? go to your local parts store and ask what you can use. many places let you put down a small deposit to use their tools.
