Except not all the headers are the same design, so if the Ricks goes you can't be sure the J's would and certainly the Mugen wouldn't

 

Car being prepared



Light sabre out!



Header off



Comparisson.



OEM ID (horizontal max)



J's ID



Head port ID

 

Will get some pics of it fitted in a bit.

Going to pop back in and do the 2 rear braces. Got a J's lower and Cusco upper

Not sure if I will dremel the bonnet until tomorrow

 

How many man hours so far?

 

Did you read his post, he clearly said 4.5 hours

 

Oops - he did indeed

 

I was taking my time, but it's still quite a tricky job and I don't think I could nock more than 1 hour off next time.





(will clean the head cover later - no paint scrapes at all though! Nor my knuckles )

Started on the intake and will finish it tomorrow, hopefully along with the braces. I'm feeling that motivated, I may even do the sump myself in a few weeks

 

Nice!

 

Wouldn't it be easier to drop the steering linkage out?
If your doing rack spacers anyhow, shift the whole thing - four bolts and a couple of flanges?

 

That is a good start.

MB, I've read in another topic that you have few questions about the J's Racing intake. Check my reply.
