My friend who works for GM says I can hone out my stock headers and save $200 bucks.. he said the after market GM header, is a stock one honed out.. should i listen to him and let him hone it out for me or just buy another header??

yea i saw that its the stock header honed out.. my friend said he could hone it out for me and save me like 200 bucks i think im gunna do that

 

you can, but everyone i've asked about honing it out wanted some heavy bank.

 

my friend is gunna do it for me for free

 

Exactly, unless you someone I would recomend just getting the GM honed manifold.
You know it's going to be perfect.

 

ermm get your friend to do it doesnt cost u nething

 

The GM performance manifold is extrude honed. GM sends them to the company 9or maybe GM has the equipment), has the work done, and then sells them as the performance part.

Have a look here: http://www.extrudehone.com/auto-oem.html

Because it enlarges and smooths the entire length of the header, there is no way that can be done with a grinder.

Unless you buddy has access to the extrude hone process.

he said u could do it with sandpaper..

 

OMG! No way bro. Don't ever listen to a word he says ever again.

 

oh wow.

You need to walk up to your friend and kick him in the nuts for offering to do something like that to your car.

thats like offering to fill up your car at the gas station for you.








With pepsi.

 

Whoa!!! Thats gonna be some tired arms!! HAHA

 

SANDPAPER!!!


he is prepin' the header for primer & paint

lol

 

lol, the honing that they do is with a really odd sort of cloth that they drag through it. having it done normally costs a few dollars.

 

haha ill have to talk to him about it.. thanks guys!!
