Burn that sh** to the ground.

 

 

Dont burn that **** to the ground...Rod's car is there.

 

Did you even look though the thread?

Post #605

 

Stupid post-man just left it at the door.

 

holy ****.

 

dont some of those holes on the header flange look off...like not round

 

It might just be the lighting on the angle in his picture.

 

the openings look fine in mine. Omega, I have a question. Is there any way to tell the difference between the intake and exhuast cam? A friend of mine was looking at mine that I just got and I can't tell the difference between the two. They both look the same to me.

 

I'm assuming you don't have the cam sensor on the end.

In which case you should take a look at the lobe centerlines, because each should be different.
You could also look at the duration, assuming they are different.

 

they have a hexagon shaped hole on the end of them. Is not having a cam sensor bad? I have heard about some of the cams not having the sensor but I don't know what I am losing.

 

I just looked at the installation instructions and it calls for a 3.5 hour install that involves removing the valve cover, etc. i'm thinking that's the the few that will choose to install this without the benefits of a lift?.......at least i'm hoping...we'll c this coming week though when I install it though......

 

Removing the valve cover is not necessary. I'd be surprised if anyone can get it in without pulling the intermediate shaft...

 

Look at the spec sheets, one is listed as a 252 intake, the other is a custom 262, which is exhaust side.

 

about how long (estimate) will it take though bc im doing it the same day im replacing my clutch sometime next week?

 

Thats good. If you're doing your clutch, you can put the header on while you have the transmission out. It will save you some time with more room to work. One big downside; I notice they are still shipping those pos hex head bolts with the header. I would suggest getting some grade 8 regular bolts with the same length and thread to use instead, cuz you will have a hell of a time fitting an allan key or hex head socket in there to get some of the header bolts in.

Also make sure and check the back of the valve cover in case the header is touching (or pushing) on it. That was a nasty surprise for me discovering it had pushed my valve cover forward...

 

well i guess i'm thankful i have the entire lower subframe and tranny out with the motor dropped. should be an easy install when it arrives.

 

yeah, that would be a def. plus

 

Corrected.

 

anyone have a pic of one of these JBP header installed on a car, kinda want to see how it looks back there.

 

So how long is it taking to get this once it's been shipped...?

Anyone?

And who's delivering? UPS? USPS? Fedex?

I sent an email (with order #) to JPB on Monday and know that it was received & read Monday afternoon but have not received any response... don't know how to quite interpet that...?

 

usps parcel post.....no idea bc none of us know when ours was really shipped....urs will arrive though give it some time.....when u get it you'll be more than happy...until u actually go to install it....lmao......jbp doesnt even try to sugar coat the install in the instructions....they know its a bitch....

 

USPS Parcel Post? Yeah, that can take a while... Thanks

 

once it got to the states through customs, mine only took 3 business days. Something to think about. Once it's across the border, it doesn't take long at all.

 

yeah i get stuff shipped from china all the time and once it passes customs it takes a day to arrive to my house.
