I recently purchased a used DC header and I was wondering
if I need any gaskets, o-rings, or anything else when I do the install.

Thanks!!

 

notta. header gasket is aluminum. o-ring can be re-used. just wd-40 the hell out of those spring loaded bolts and make sure they have been sitting and are totally cold before trying to un-do them, or else, they'll break.

make sure you have a floor jack and a thick phone book. I had to jack up my car with a large jack and a houston phone book to get it high enough to remove the header.

also, the black shield, bolt near the back, dont remove it all the way, just loosen it up, and the black shield pulls directly UP-wards. its not a complete hole back there. you'll see what I mean when you get to it.

 

Thanks!
