ok this forum has once again saved my butt after 2 weeks of monkey humpin the thing its finally on the bike with all 4 factory exhaust flange nuts on .i took it for a short ride around the station its runs awesome no decel pop i must have had one hell of an exhaust leak.again thanks to everyone who helped on here ill touch up the dei paint a little and post some pics, Kit

 

two weeks. yikes!! good that all is well now.

 

Good to hear man, I'm glad it worked out for you finally. What ended up being the solution to your problem? I'm gonna R&R mine in the next day or two, this Air Force recruiting job doesn't leave much time for doing the things I want to do, gonna try to get it done tomorrow night.

 

thanks basicly you i put the rear head pipe in first and had to push down on the pipe in order to get the nut on .once i got the rear done thethe front pipe didnt want to fit. it took another person pushing the pipe around in order to get it it to fit .in the 2 weeks i had it off like 4 times i also painted it but i think it was all worth it . pics to follow promise

 

Cool, which gaskets did you use? The stock kind or the SE type?

 

i used the stock taperd kind just be carefull when you put them in they crush very easy good luck the thing runs great with the pcv i feels like it pulls alot harder.

 

A bit of advice: Each week when you check your tire pressure - check the nuts on the T-header where it connects to the heads. I'm not sure why, but I've lost a SH!TLOAD of em over the years. Keep em tight.

 

thanks man thats probably a good idea with my luck

 

Wow sounds like a biatch job---well done!

 

it was a pain for sure im not a wrench by any means but this thing made me feel like an idiot . im sold tho and would go through it again lol
