How much better performance will this manifold yield over the OE one?

Now that is an interesting question!

However, as both of these are sold as OEM replacements there doesn't seem to be any performance claims made.

Id' be more worried about that huge spark on the battery when that was first cranked over.

 

[BenDiesel]

lol you noticed that to im going to be replacing the battery cables here soon. got to do some other stuff first before i can get to them

 

[4WDlifeform]

That starter has a very interesting sound??

 

[wolfpackjeeper]

that girl probably comes pre-installed with the clap

is it seriously only 2 bolts holding the manifolds on?

i saw these on ebay too, and thinking about getting them. those others ones that were posted here don't look too bad either.

Used it and well satisfied. Cleaned it, heat paint, baked it and installed it. Still good after 3500 miles of driving! If it cracks, nothing really lost.

What? No- it's a stock replacement. Same number of bolts holding your manifold on now.

i thought it would be more than that. one of those headers says it comes with 2 bolts for mounting, and i can only see 2 holes on the manifold.

Ah, that is probably for the collector- my APN came with 2 bolt, nuts, and washers for the collector- you typically (as far as I can tell) need to buy replacement mounting bolts/studs/nuts for the manifold itself separately. Also, should you buy a header with bolts, I would recommend buying some studs that press into the flange like the OE setup. I had a heckuva time trying to hold the downpipe in place while turning two wrenches.

 

[wolfpackjeeper]

get brass studs when you replace the ones in the block. It will make it less of a hassle if you ever have to pull it again.

 

[taggart_lumpy]

does anyone have any other pictures of the header when they received it?

 

[cruiser54]

You mean you want a photo of the header minus the broad?

Reuse all the old Header/Manifold bolts/cup washers....the bolts included are for the flange. It also comes with a collector doughnut gasket and the main gasket.
