Thanks brotha. I actually got them done by my paint local shop. Cost me 150 bucks straight cash because I know the owner pretty good. I got my oem paint color so they would match the car.

Nice my brotha the new header looks really good. And yeah my old header was leaking as well like that and had to get a new one. Nothing worse than a damn exhaust leak lol. Where did you get the fuel line kit from? Ottp or zzp? I'm going to be tackling my brakes and all the new lines when i'm off on vacation in another two weeks that i can focus on that stuff completely without dealing with work lol. Once I get everything done brotha i'll upload some pics.

they sound really good too!! No more god damn clicking lol. My car was just dumping fuel with the leak so I’m glad that’s fixed. I got the zzp one, looks decent might tackle that next week. Nice man, I’ve never done brakes myself not sure if I want to try it or just have the shop do that, have you?

Fuel line is in and my fingers are gone hahah.
Think it took me 3 hours. Fuel line coming out of the filter and going to the fuel rail was rusted, go figure… and I snapped the bolt that held in the filter.. all in all looks really good and happy to have a new filter in there. It let go A LOT of black fuel/ gunk

Good job brotha. I didn't wanna **** with fuel lines as i be too paranoid if i fucked something up so i got my local shop to do that job. Good thing now is that you basically got a permanent solution that probably will never rust out now brotha.

The fuel line was pretty straight forward, Had to buy a quick disconnect and then it's just a bunch of pesky little clips. One thing that was a little hard was getting the fuel line out of the engine bay and then getting it out of the rear of the car. I choose to use vice grips and brake the line in two different spots so I could get them out easier. Also removing the fuel line clips going to the fuel filter were a PITA haha but yeah it looks really good and should never have any issues with fuel going forward.

Oh I'm sure you'll get it done no problem. Is is hard to get the claiper pins out when doing pad/s rotors?

Thankfully I got a impact gun to help with those brotha. I'm going rip the old calipers off anyway to put those newly painted ones on. Plus I got all the hardware to rebuild them. Its just rust that annoys me and causes problem as you know brotha lol. Salt destroys everything out my way in Nova Scotia.

Yeah when my local shop got all the work done they said my lines were pretty shot especially my evap lines. But overall like I said brotha its a upgrade for them lines with the zzp or ottp fuel line kit. GM really cheaped out on our fuel lines brotha lol. You'll have to post up a pic of the new fuel line or the portion in the engine bay that connects to the fuel rail.

Makes sense I guess, you don't need to worry about taking them out nicely haha, new ones should slid right in those clean calipers.

Yeah my evap line was worse than my fuel line. hopfully get rid of that next, though I have been wondering if my fuel in the tank will evaporate quicker if its vents straight to atmosphere

Thanks bro I really like my engine bay could stare at it forever lol.. Yeah the fuel line is growing on me forsure. Please, I think I might try to swap rotors in a week or so, my pads were replaced before but the rotors look like garbage
