No the headers installed.

C'mon up for those spraybombs and bring your camera. We'll get the Silver in the air, and you can go crazy!

Cool man can we fab them there too?

I need to get up there again. Awesome area!

I will, once they're actually fabricated. Plan right now is for OT to cut/tack the SS pipe I shipped him, then I'll have my friend who's got the TIG gear weld everything up along with custom collectors (same ones YT used). What I'd like to do is then get each pipe digitized so they can be mandrel bend for future kits (assuming there is a sufficient interest in them -- OT will be the supplier, if he decides he wants to be

)

Found these doing a search on svxworldforums. Nice design, but wonder if they will make a long tube version. I doubt the shortys will give a big performance gain over oem.

Just spoke with the guy and he can get me all the bends together with mild steel for 250 plus ground shipping (about 15 bucks) He will have the flanges, collector, and bends that I request after measuring height and length. He is going to leave the tubes long so I can cut and have the collector tacked in where I want it. Is steel going to be a problem over stainless? Can someone do better for the money? Thanks.

Are you just getting the pieces or will the bends be welded to the flange? Since rails run the engine backwards, I'm guessing the manifolds would normally be pointing the wrong way...

Trying to get all the pictures and measurements for him and then he will make them. I did not notice the flanges were backwards. I will have to make sure it is right when he makes them.

I can't tell from the picture, but looking at the engines on his site, they are all pointed the wrong way. Just make sure when you order that he know you want them pointing towards the bellhousing and not the timing belts

Where you guys buying your O2 sensors at? OEM?

Normally Bosch #13250 at Advance Auto Parts for about $90.00 each.
Some folks buy some NGKs for in the $50 each range, but I have not tried them yet.

httrdd · #29 10-06-2010, 07:12 PM

Thanks I know a guy at advance that can get me a killer discount on them.

Johnny, the headers might be a better market than the intakes?

I have a design I'm working on, but they were probably going to be done with my turbo piping in a 3 in. outlet not the stock 2.5 not sure what route I'm going right now. I'm currently trying to get the SVX back together so I can compete in the Lap battle at Miller Motorsports Park on the 30th
