So obviously I have the pipes... What else is needed for install? I am assuming I will need a new gasket, I bought used pipes so I think I will need to buy a gasket. Does anyone have a PN?

Also do I need to torque the bolts? If so, what do I torque them to?

Thanks Guys.

 

I would recommend replacing the gaskets. Not sure of the part number my local hd had it in stock was $14 for the two. When I picked them up yesterday.

 

Gaskets you need depend on the pipe. If tapered ends, use stock, if square cut ends use SE gaskets

 

Don't forget to buy beer before you start. Glad I could help

 

For the FB:

Stock 'tapered' = #65324-83B
S.E. 'flat' = #17048-98
Header bolt torque = 100-120 in-ibs, retorque after couple hundred mi.

Thanks for the PN's guys. I will head to the dealer in the morning and pick the stuff up. I read an old thread that said something about a retaining ring?? Do I need that to?

 

Yeah you will need a circlip pliars to take off the retaining clip that holds on the header flange.

 

You will reuse the header flange and clip from your pipes now.

All you need is 2 tappered crush gaskets form HD dealer.


So what do you think of them ... I told you they were nice and you got a hell of a deal my friend

 

Changed a lot of pipes never needed new retaining clips or any kind of tool to remove .
The only thing to remember is use a good penetrating oil (not WD-40) on the exhaust header bolts the night before and change the pipes cold . Do not over tighten .

 

To be honest, I haven't even opened the box. They have been sitting in the box at my work waiting to head to my parents house where the bike is stored for the winter. I am super pumped to get them on tho. Air cleaner and micro tuner should have been delivered today. I think I am going to do everything on Sunday.
