rubber gloves to help with grip and to keep oil from skin off the pipes. the old exhaust gaskets are suposed to be ok to reuse but i replaced mine. just remove with neddle nose or forcepts. i used loctite blue on the exhaust bolts and you are to only snug them using a 1/4 drive rachet and equal thread should be exposed. mine are about 3 to 4 thread. install them after lunch so you move slower. Place a towel under the pipes and between them utill they are finished.
the PCV will work 06 and the retrofit will allow you to use the 02 upgrade for full auto tune and save the dyno tune money.

I ordered new gaskets.
I guess I can get loctite at WalMart right? or Home Depot?
only snug? really? not tight... just snug? where's it way that? this is a first heard for me.
equal thread should be exposed?
lol (after lunch) you were probably serious but you have to admit that sounds funny.
great suggestion about the towel...thanks.
I wasn't planning on O2 upgrade... definately not anytime soon anyway. Should I consider it in the future?

this info was from the hooker pipes i got and i guess you can download from the web the same info at V&H or hookerpipes.com. or i can email you a scan of them. loctite blue at autozone, ect.
no i was just kidding on the lunch but i do work better after eating instead of hurrying to get finished.

Torque wrench... My 3/8" drive cost about $60CDN... Money spent on quality measuring tools is always money well spent.

Read over the instructions again for probably the 50th time and because I've taken the time to actually look over the bike the last couple of days everything is starting to come to mind as I'm reading it now. I really don't think this is going to be that hard.
Appreciate everyone's input/advice... thanks.

The torque wrenches I bought are Mastercraft though, from Canadian Tire. Not sure what the US equivalent to them would be.
