Exclamation New Headers!



So I bought these for my truck a 3 weeks ago and I got them about a week ago! My room mate and I should be putting them in this weekend if all goes right. I'm hiding them from everyone it's just going to be a big surprise. My friend has an Explorer to and ours are pretty even matched in HP but he has better gearing then me so he can pull away a little and that pisses me off...So I bought these and they Dyno tested to add 20 HP to the wheels! I took some pictures of the headers today but I don't feel like uploading the haha so I will show you some pictures from there sit!






I REALLY can't wait! I will keep everyone posted So make sure you keep checking back What I'm waiting on now is my room mate needs to put in his new front axle before we can start on my truck so I'm hoping we get to that tonight. He has had a rough day, this ***** he was detailing three work(construction) trucks for "was not happy" with them. They only gave him 3 ours on each truck and he is a one man show. He is the cheapest in town. So they gipped him 380$ because he could not get all the dust out of the crevices like the a air vents and speakers covers...*****...Anyways Keep you updated on my headers!

These will be a bit tough just enough room to move around for the passenger side you have to loosen the engine bolts and lift it a bit but oh well I can't wait!

My room mate was the one mostly putting them in just because I can't with my body and arm blah blah blah but I did what I could. Oh man! He was yelling and screaming at it half the time.

Passenger side: You had to loosen the engine mounting brackets and lift the engine 2" to get the header to fit

Crazy Crazy two day!
