perfect, got all the info I needed in this thread... installing some used bbk equal length shorties and H-pipe on Thursday.

Any advice on installing ELS headers? I hear they can be a bit more of a pain in the rear that normal shorties.

must use new gaskets, bolts depends on how old they are but you can get new header bolts in summit for like 30-40 bucks and they won't loosen up...remember the anti-sieze!

equals arent to hard to install. Just get yourself some different bolts. I would recommend what i used they are an allen head bolt but also have a 7/16 head and alot easier to get in there and move them around.
