Got my Headers!!!!!
 
My BBK headers arrived today!!! Getting prices to put them on, unfortunately I have no garage[emoji853].

I’m in SE PA, 10 miles or so from Philly if anybody local can give me a reference to put them in. First estimate was 500 bucks.

Do them yourself! Most dont have the issues i ran into. Not that hard if a bolt doesnt break on you like it did for me. Save money and learn how to do it!

I already did 4 sets of Kooks headers in my garage and didn't have a problem. So, but I can't do that anymore.

I have no garage to do it in. Or I would.

That's cool. How are you doing Ralph? Hope all is well with you.

If you have a driveway, that's reasonably flat, a jack, some stands, and a buddy I'm sure you could get it done if a few hours. Heck, you could probably even take it to a flat parking lot on a nice day and get it done if you really wanted to. The $500 that people want for installing them could go to paying for your tune. They're really not that hard to do and that's coming from someone who only knew what he learned from the forums before installing his own.

I'm doing OK. You can do it in my garage. I even have a lift.

Can't you do it where you store the car?

I really don't want to do it in my driveway. I'd rather farm it out actually, I am not a young man any more.

Are you a old as Ralph? He's been doing these up until recently. I hope that I'm at least half as capable as he is when I'm his age.

oldman14ss 05-14-2020 09:33 PM

may I be so inquisitive to ask how old ? I'm 62 and fat. I have to lay on my back under jack stands. I found if I fart real good I fit under the car easier

Hahahaha that's pretty funny. I am 66 and fat as well. I just don't feel up to it, I'd rather pay somebody.
