Couple of questions installing ARH headers - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Jeffro19 · 11-01-2010, 04:29 PM

I will be installing the ARH 1 7/8 headers with the catted x pipe in the next few days. I was wondering if there any tricks or things I should know about. Do I need to disconnect the steering arm and dipstick? Use original gaskets or use the provided ones? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Get two people for the dipstick tube, have someone watch as you take it out. Re-use your manifold gaskets from GM. Get some never seize to help join it to your catback.

Get a piece of tape and put it on the block where the dip stick goes BEFORE you remove it so you have a good reference point when putting it back in. That was the most time consuming part of the install.

Good luck.
