Why do you types always show up on the night shift!





















.....

On topic. Jake, is it speed bumbs that are killing ya (assuming you're reffering to a street car), or general driving? What are your motor mounts like....could you isntall taller ones? Could you install some sort of bump stop in the front suspension on that side to keep it from bottoming out the header?

Just trying to bring a little bit of tech to this thread.

For the lose

ok: I agree they suck!!! [they came with the car]
it is obvious that that is the way they are supposed to be! it was made this way for no reason?

I guess so my buddy has a set on his car and one hangs lower than the other. And his h pipe hangs really low because of this.

I have put on a few sets of bbks and all of them are a Pain in the a$$. I have had nothing but trouble out of all of there parts.

I dont know why I am always seeing everyone having problems with them.... I had bbk long tubes on my 87, I installed them, and they didnt hang low. and my 88(previous owner installed them) doesnt hang low either. Maybe headers are the only lucky thing going for me.

 

[cenok is family]

if not bbk, what do you guys prefer? MAC? i'm gonna get a whole new exhaust in a while and was gonna go with some bbk long tubes with a matching H pipe.

 

[88mouse]

Mac all the way back FTW.

Speaking from personal experience.....great sound, high flow exhaust, but every bit as lousy craftsmanship and even worse fit and finish than the BBK stuff. I've never seen a set of Mac OHV headers fit right, especially used. You honestly get what you pay for with Mac.

 

[SVT32VDOHC]

Are you guys talking L/T's or shorties? I have never had or seen a problem with BBK shorties.

Both.

same here

MAC's are a decent header but fitment is a problem for them. Sometimes they require a hammer to get them to fit.

That being said, I have a set of Flowtechs installed which arent any better.

 

[408gt91]

ive had long tube bbk's on my 331 that i had to send back because of that problem and they sent me new ones that fit perfect.i also used long tube bbk's on my 351 swap and they fit perfect.i used mac 1 time and i needed counciling after for my anger.f***mac andf***flowtech Junk.
