Cool wow these headers look great. Thanks for sharing

 

got them today, looks really nice, install this weekend. DO I need to use a torque wrench?

 

Yes, but dont over tourque

 

whats a good cheap torque wrench to buy

 

If you live near an Autozone or Murrays, they may rent one to you. If not, get one with that is the "click type" dont get the one with the "pointer" that moves...those suck, and are inacurate.

On the plus side, I put my Edelbrock header on today, along with a cat-back system.
The header went on VERY easy, looks good too.
Only dislike...one of the primary tubes is real close to my slave cylinder's bleeder screw.
Other that that, its pretty cool.

 

What car did you install your edelbrock header on? Did your header have little spaces around the flanges?

 

any butt-dyno gains? does it sound different?

 

I installed it on my 95 Civic Hatchback DX.
And spaces around the flanges...are you talking about the header to engine flange, or the flange where the "A" pipe bolts to the main header? If your talking about the former the answer is yes.
And "butt-dyno gains?" you lost me there. As for do I know what the increase in power/performance/fuel economy? It does seem to run a little better, quicker acceleration and such. As for the sound, its actually quieter than my stock exhaust was. It does have a deeper tone to it. I replaced the whole system at once, so I dont know if the header alone made the sound diff.

But as stated earlier...$142 for a Stainless Steel header...shipped....that a deal I couldn't pass up.
