headers

[heineck]

just wonderin wat type of headers are u guys running on the L61?

[[ion] C2]

It's header, singular. Not headers. There's one header on a four cylinder, one bank of cylinders, four runners that lead into a collector. On V6/8/etc engines they are headers because there are more than one of them...

Pacesetter makes some, RKSport makes some, check out www.j-body.org or the GM Ecotec Enthusiast forums. All Ecotec headers work on the L61, including those on the LSJ supercharged engine.

hehe

tsudo's on the 2.4L LD9 hit the subframe or something, causing false knock haha. hopefully the ecotec one is fine.

[heineck]

ive been readin on ecotecforum hopefully it works the only things is the color change but that with all headers after time right?

[[ion] C2]

Only those that are uncoated, my JET-HOT coated Pacesetter won't rust or turn colors besides the shiny silver it comes like.

[heineck]

is it a bad thing when they change colors or is that just cosmetic?

[[ion] C2]

cosmetic, primarily, unless it's turning to rust lol

[heineck]

thought so yea rust would be a problem

[Nate's Alero]

lol, my saturns header is almost complete rust......lol the whole exhaust is....lol

the saturns phail at exhausts

[cherrington17]

^which might be a benefit. Its gives modders a reason to upgrade. :thumb:

....but most people don't..... :thumbsdown:

[heineck]

hey ion is there anything i can buy and apply? since i didnt order coated, and these were pretty much the only 4-2-1 i could find

[[ion] C2]

[heineck]

i have the one from rk sport, i had to slightly modifiy the rear of the engine cradle, it was banging i dont know about dyno numbers never did it, it sounds good, i feel a bit more low end power
was it worth the money yes and no what does it look like installed in the engine bay? and why would you say yes and no for them being worth the money?

Cherry, how long have you been on this site? You dont know what sites make headers for the 3400????? NOOOOOOB:rolleyes2:

[billytheman1188]

^^^Oh yea, the best headers for the 3400 are sold at SSheaders.com

The guy who put them in for me told me they are the best fitting/looking headers he's ever put in. So im guessing they are pretty good :)
