I would have covered those bitches in hi-temp paint!

Your truck 4wd...hard to tell. I have the same exact headers...seems like mine would rub the front driveshaft?

I have 2.5" QTP Exhaust Cut outs for you...$250 shipped! :) Barely used!

You need to get spark plug boots from jegs to stop the cracking as well as the guides over the valve covers so your spark plugs dont hit.

i felt heat inside the car when i first put the headers on... ya thats crazy that they glowed atomic, its amazing metal doesnt just fall apart when it gets red like that :)...

I took the wrap of last night hah oops... it sounds like there is some debate on the issue but if there is any chance of it reducing the life of my coating ill just go for heat shield and sound deadener inside the car. i got some boots for the wires, what is the over the valve cover wire you guys use??

Cool, but I was referring to the author of the thread. Sorry for the confusion.

I have headmen long tubes for a 2wd I purchased. I went to install them last year. Didn't seem like they would fit, just tried lining them up on the lift with everything installed.

ya its a 4wd, i had to get the exhaust tube bent about 2" toward the driver side of the car to get it around the transfer case... other than that though there were no fitment issues, but it could be due to the body lift. other people have a hard time fitting long tubes?

ill get pics of it up tonight, couldnt get a good view with the cell so ill have to use my camera

Nice work! It's weird you had to put that bend in there before the transfer case, same headers and when they ran mine it was straight until it makes the 1st turn to go under the tailhousing. :think:

The pic makes it look tighter than it actually is, I've got a 3" or more by the transfer case
