Two things that come to mind are to check the header flanges for squareness and straightness before you start, and to do all test fitting with the gaskets in place. Buy an extra set of exhaust manifo

Phil- I dont know if it will work for anyone else but I did away with header bolts. I bought stainless steel allen head bolts. Much easier to get an allen wrench socket on than a socket or end wrench

Unfortunately everyone seems to have a slightly different set of problems with these headers. I've talked to several people who had to grind and smooch in places I did not need to and vice versa. I h

At the last SUNI, Doug Jennings Sr. had some pointed comments about Allen head bolts on headers... My header bolts came undone without too much hassle when I took the engine out, although I could see

Theo- thanks for your thoughts on the thread lock/antiseize. I was of the same in thinking but actually wasnt positive about aluminum heads. I have known and respected Doug Sr and Jr. for that matter

Since I do not have headers, I don't want to venture too far into an unknown area. I can understand that allen bolts might not put the force of the bolt over as large an area as a normal bolt. What I

The headers I had on the car had flame-cut flanges and MIG welded joints. Any place where the welds might interfere with the bolts, had been "dressed" with an angle grinder, from its appearance, and

I purchased the expensive Earl's metal gaskets and used them on my aluminum heads. Perfect seal. After a very short time I removed the motor and made some changes and put it back together. I had some

I'm just curious if anyone has ever dyno-ed their Tiger before and after ONLY installing headers (and tuning mods relating to the headers - richer jets etc.). The reason I ask is that I have a Mopar

Don't forget that the headers weigh about half as much as the cast manifolds. Less is more.... To answer the other query about Doug Sr's comments at SUNI, he wasn't too specific other than that Allen

Hi Phillip, You must have one of those Tiger exhausts where the muffler shop tried to go over the rear axle or something. Even the factory exhaust, with its admittedly small 1 5/8" tubing, went nearl

For what it is worth, according to the simulator the increase in HP going from a "typical street" 1-5/8" dual exhaust to a "typical street" 2-1/4" dual exhaust is worth more than twice as much HP as

Thanks for running the numbers. Interesting how the torque (and therefore HP) actually was closest at 6,500 RPM. You would think it was the other way around, that's how the Mopar was. Philip, Can't
