headers came in today!

JDM stainless headers came in today, can't wait to get them on. one thing I will advise future buyers is to clean the inside of the tubes out before you install them. there is a bunch of cutting grease/dirt inside the tubes which can't be good for cats or O2 sensors, if my camera didn't suck you would be able to see better. other than that, they are a great, quality built product. I just stuffed some rags in there and pulled them through with a wire to clean them out.

dirty inside:

Please, post your impressions of the headers after you install, I am in the market and I am wondering if they are worth the $$$$$. Thanks .

I'll keep my ear out mat... It doesn't look like the weather is going to warm up anytime soon, I'm still shooting for the last week of march to take my truck back out, and as soon as I get all the parts on I'm going to go down to J&M corvette in Manchester to get dyno'd so I can check my A/F ratios, probably in the first or second week of april, maybe we can meet up If you've never had your truck dyno'd? my friend is getting his 02 stang done too.

Yes I would love to get my truck dyno'd. I am sure my brother would like to also if possible. Just let me know when and where. As long as I can get the time off from work I will go. -Mat-

Have fun installing them. And don't forget to post pics of your facial expression after you start it up the first time
