: How long to install headers? VetteChronicles 08-03-2010, 06:59 AM I am going to be getting a set of headers installed at my mech. What should the time be to install them so I know he's being straight with me? I have an 86 and full length headers will be going on, I just don't have the time to do this myself. mat helm 08-03-2010, 10:43 AM Once he gets to it, a few hours. But anything on a vette is tough. InjectorsPlus 08-03-2010, 10:45 AM Depends on how easy the original exhaust comes apart. Depends if you keep the AIR system in tact. Depends on the EGR provision. Lots of variables. In a PERFECT world, 4 hours. powerstruggle 08-04-2010, 06:50 AM :iagree: Only if all the old stock stuff comes off with out a hitch. theold86 08-05-2010, 03:51 PM Aren't headers super easy to do? hokies83 08-05-2010, 04:15 PM Aren't headers super easy to do? Depends on which brand you get... Melrose header TPiS headers EM Headers yes they are easy... Cheapo hedmens not so easy. vetteoz 08-05-2010, 04:46 PM Only if all the old stock stuff comes off with out a hitch. Exactly I just installed stock exh back into my '87.Took me a hour to get one stock manifold bolted up , lack of working room Could drop both long tube headers out in less than 20 min ( inc beer ) WW7 08-06-2010, 05:39 AM On my 89 it only took 1 hour to get the Hooker headers on, but 4 hours to cut and weld the y pipe to make it fit.. Like mentioned above, it all depends on how it fits and how the old stuff comes off.WW | |
