A friend of mine just installed MAC LT Headers and after 500 miles (weekend trip to the Ocala Silver Springs Show) his car was smoking like crazy as the AC line was burnt and freon was spilling onto the hot exhaust system/headers.
What can be done to prevent the AC lines from hitting the new Long Tube Headers because I don't want the same thing happening to me as I'm about ready in the next couple of weeks to install the same MAC LT Headers on my automatic....his car's a stick......not that I think that matters since MAC makes the same Headers for both the stick and auto.
Secondly, what bolts should be used to avoid any exhaust leaks.....can and should you reuse the original Ford bolts.
Please advise.
Sincerely,
