Doug's Headers D3321

Sup everybody!

Before you go and tell me to use the search engine, i did a search on the headers and there is some info out there. But not enough to make me feel confident in spending $700.

Currently running a T56 with the BMR relocation crossmember.

I'm at stock ride height with no plans to lower my car in the future, anybody currently have these installed and can provide some pictures? did they fall right in or was it a complete PITA to put these in the car?

More info: No smog equipment on the car

These are 2210 copys. I would look at the super comps since they are tried and proven. I have them and love them. They fit good and make the most power out of all the headers you can buy.

I just put these on my car about a month ago. I was fortunate and had the engine out at the time but honestly it was still a PITA.

I had to remove the oil cooler. You also need to clearance some of the passenger side area with a grinder. Overall, they're very nice looking, seem to flow well, and are a good quality piece.

Hope this helps!

Re: Doug's Headers D3321

Indeed, finished with the install last week. Passenger side went right in after figuring out what angle to push them in from, stater also had to come off. As others has stated it has to be done from under the car with the collector pointing down. Also had to do some shaving on the K-Member nothing crazy.

Driver side was a PITA had to jack the motor up, take the oil filter off and ofcourse just when we thought we were done, the 4th plug on the driver side came in contact with the header, off they came and had to modify that header tube.

BUT! This isn't a stock motor, it's a crate motor with angle plug heads. So i can't tell you how big of a nightmare it would be on a stock engine. I guess that's what the 2210 sticky above is for
