i have these spacers i got with my edelbrock headers, i dont understnad how they work.

the spacers are .7" and another is 1.5" long, but all the bolts are only a 1" long.

anyone have these headers, what do u do with these spacers?

 

On one of the instruction sheets it tells you where each spacer goes. Their purpose is so you can put all the stock brackets on like the ac braket if you are using the stock bolts.

 

sounds like it's for the AC bracket, and u use the stock mani bolt. i had to make mine.

 

ok thanks

hmm now which bolt was the stock one. lol

 

yeah thats gonna be fun haha. Where are you at right now?

 

i have the passenger side all bolted down except for the one bolt for the ac bracket.

and drivers side, im still figuring what it means by removing the steering column connector, once i figure that out, i can get the drivers side in.

oh and my stock y pipe is stuck in the cat, cant get it out. cant get the air tube out of the cat either lol

 

Time to break out the sawzall or dremel

 

i hope your refering to the y pipe and not my steering column.

but that wont help if i cut it, cuz then im still gonna have a piece of the pipe in my cat, and i wont be able to slip my new y pipe in.

 

ok for using the stock bolts, i dont understand, do i put the stock bolts in facing the same way as they originally were? and then do i slide the spacer on it then the bracket? cuz for the A/C bracket, with a spacer, it wont clear one of the exhaust pipes, but without the spacer, i run out of thread.

 

idunno if u got it yet or not, but i thought i'd post this anyway

the first one is prob the more helpful one for u

 

aren't those spacers used for the PS bracket? I know my headers came with instructions on how to make a spacer for the ps bracket you have to cut up to get it to fit on the headers

 

my PS doesnt have a bracket, i have a bracket for the alternator on drivers side, and the AC compressor on the passenger side.

im gonna say screw it and not use any bracket.
