7. Remove the gaskets and any gasket material or any carbon deposits that remain on the
head surface. The use of a gasket removal agent will ease the removal of any gasket
material.
INSTALLATION
1. Passenger Side - Working from the top, slide the header through the opening in the
inner fender that you cut and line the header up with the cylinder head.
2. Place the gasket into position and start the bolts. After all the bolts are started and you
have verified that the header does not contact the inner Fenderwell, tighten the bolts
working from the center out.
3. Drivers Side – Installation is the same as the passenger side with the exception of the
forward most two bolts. If your alternator or generator mounted to the exhaust manifold,
use the supplied bracket #H7606 to mount your original alternator bracket.
If you don’t
have the original bracket, order part #H7607. See illustration for installation.
4. Re install spark plugs and wires.
5. Bolt the reducers to the header collectors using the supplied gaskets and hardware.
6. Connect the negative battery cable.
IMPORTANT CHECK LIST
Be sure that all brake lines and fuel lines are clear of headers and/or connector pipes.
All spark plug wires, battery cables, or other electrical components should be clear of
headers and/or connector pipes.
If dipstick tube was removed, make sure it is installed properly and that the dipstick has
been replaced.
Double-check the tightness of all bolts including brackets and accessories.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Start the engine and allow it to warm up to operating temperature. Check for any unusual
noises or exhaust leaks. If every thing is OK, stop the engine and tighten all bolts while
the engine is still warm.
NOTE: Check the bolts periodically to make sure they have not loosened. Re-tighten
after the first 500 miles and then again at 1000 miles.
