Hello I am installing a Mac H Pipe on My 84 GT. I have also installed Factory ford 85 GT headers. What is that vacumm controled flapper valve in the drive side header? Right at the flange. Do I need to keep this hooked up? I am also removing the smog pump at this time. thanx

If I'm thinking of the same thing -- they are usualyl for helping the car warm up when cold.

Just put a hose on it and block it off. You will be fine. I did before I switched over to a o/r x-pipe

You won't get a great fit with that h-pipe using the dumb 85 headers, the end of one is a little longer than the other side. If you could find 86+ headers it will fit better.
