what do i do now??!? i felt the bolt in the back where the y pipe meets and it feels that the bolt is made into the header part where it bolts to the y pipe.. do I have to know take off each header and drill holes for new bolts? or do these actually bang out???

 

 

 

 

WHAT DO I DO

 

You can buy a tool that kind of looks like a drill bit that is a bolt remover, if you can get to it. Here is a type call an easy out. I think that is what I have at home, but I'll have to look. I've never used it, so I don't know how easy they are to use.

i dont it? hows it supposed to take the bolt out without messing up the teeth on the manifold? does it like go in couter clockwise and it turns the bolt to the left at the same time?

 

and look at this.. how am i supposed to stop this other side from moving? do i have to take the steering pump out? i think thats the power steering pump.. but anyway.. i can manage to get a wrench in there.. if i do have to take the pump out right there... i looked for a way to take the tension off of the belt.. theres like no pulley that slides like the alt or anything wtf

 

get a dremel, and cut the bolt from the middle, one the manfilds are out then you can worry about removeing the rest.


thats what the guy with my edelbrock headers had todo.

I sat for 3 days with pb oil and stuff trying to get them darn things ouit, i got one out with the pb oil. the others, i got very creative with my dremel, and pretty much, but a hole around the bolt and had a guy weld new ones in place for me. hehe..


But the sectiopn between the two franges just get a cutting tool and cut that darn biatch....





shane

 

yeah i could do that.. i could just drill the bolts out then get new bolts.. slide them in the holes then weld the bolt in

 

and you have to pretty much take the a/c ompressor off, and the power steering pump brackes off also.....

They are all mounted to the manifolds. when we did my headers swap, we cut the parts that connected to the manifolds clear off, i hated them sun of a guns.

Its not that hard, my first tiem i had some help, as long as you dont get into anything majorly mechanical you should be fine and what your doing is the easy stuff, if you cant do this, then why are you taking them off?

 

this is cake.. no matter what i do i'll never give up and eventually get it done.. i just dont wuna fck anything up.. i'm doing this cause i have a downpipe with a glasspack and couldnt weld on top of it because of the floor board .. so if the whole exhaust was off itd be easy..well it turned into something bigger lol oh well

 

Yea, dude, I know how it goes. I took my headers off to put some new ones on.... two weeks later, I still don't have the exhaust put back on. 'well, since I have this off, I might as well do this', and on and on and on.
