Gonna buy some headers after my b16 is put in (sadly the shop i was at . the sad ****s ordered my 95 civic dx a ****ing B16A and it wont fit.. so now i gatta buy a B16A2. (hopefulyl some 1 will buy my b16a) but anyways im gonna install my own headers when i get em. and i just wanted to know if there was anything else to it other then just the simple little unscrewing and putting in the new headers..

 

It depends on the application.

Generally there are gaskets that you need to line up perfect. Not to mention tightening everything to spec.

Also, those bolts tend to slip as you break in the metal of the header. Therefore you will have to get back in there and tighten everthing a couple more times. Be patient and do it right the first time. Look in the DIY section to see if there is one on that. I'm pretty sure there is.

Also, you need to be extremely careful with the O2 sensor. It is vital to the car, is sensitive, and is easily broken. On top of all of that, it is an expensive part to replace for a relatively minor **** up.

 

thanks !

 

what?

did they get a OBD0 swap with cable tranny or something??

 

the sad ****'s just ordered the wrong engine.. something about the alternator wont line up. uh the mounts dont iether.. some other junk like that
