Re: Project: Agent Orange
I was hoping you were talking about a dirt bike, not a jeep or a ford.

Re: Project: Agent Orange
Okay, got the heep done enough to kick it out of the K5 space.
Time to get somethin' done! http://i639.photobucket.com/albums/u...tandCenter.jpg Took some passenger side header pics while I was out there today, the headers fit the frame well but look to be uber tight exiting towards the bell housing. http://i639.photobucket.com/albums/u...rsPassSide.jpg http://i639.photobucket.com/albums/u...rsPassSide.jpg http://i639.photobucket.com/albums/u...rsPassSide.jpg |
Re: Project: Agent Orange
why cant I find those headers for sale anywhere? I went to see if the headers I had would fit and passenger hits the tranny, so Ill be needing a new set, and I remembered these looking good. do you know anywhere that sells them?

Re: Project: Agent Orange
Can you get a ratchet on all of the spark plugs? Looks like #6 might be tight.

Re: Project: Agent Orange
thanks man you are my savior!

They're always tight...:rolleyes: The bigger question in my mind is, "will it burn the plug wires" Had a set on the blue one that were literally impossible to stop from burning through and arcing out. :sumo: |

Re: Project: Agent Orange
would those spark plug wire kevlar boots help prevent burning?

I spent big money with a company called 'Live Wire' for wires that are "gauranted" not to burn...yep they burt. I used those boots on my blue blazer with the 2.5" rams and after time, even the center two would burn through. I just saw an add where Accel is making some with ceramic ends, I think I'll be looking into a set of those. |
Re: Project: Agent Orange
just checked out the accel set you were talking about, theyre around 150 a set. I would need the 90 degree ends for those headers right?
|
Re: Project: Agent Orange
If the ceramic boots are hard, they might not have the flexibility needed to fit over the end of the plug when you put them in. I'll let someone else spend the $150 to find out.

Re: Project: Agent Orange
Maybe we should share a pic. ;)
Thanks for the link. http://static.summitracing.com/globa...cc-9001c_w.jpg |
Re: Project: Agent Orange
One more question on the headers. How does the shift linkage from the column to tranny clearance look? are the headers interfering?
|
Re: Project: Agent Orange

Didn't really study that area, plans are to use a cable shift. Installing a 4spd tilt, so there's no linkage there. |
Re: Project: Agent Orange
well Im ordering a flaming river column tilt too and have a 700r4 as well so i was just worried about the linkage. Ive never hard of the cable shift before I was just going to order the lokar linkage. ill have to take a look into these cable shift.

Re: Project: Agent Orange
The headers run pretty close to the firewall. What is the temperature rating of the lizard skin? Will it withstand the heat in the engine compartment without cracking, shrinking, or burning? I've never seen it used in that area.

As for the cable shift, I got it through Summit and it's made by Lokar. Note that this is not what I'm using this time, the pic is from the blue blazer which had a factory column. http://i639.photobucket.com/albums/u...lokarcable.jpg Quote:
The Lizard Skin is a two part application with the 1st layer being a sound control and the 2nd being heat protection. Taken right off of the container stating what it will do: *Reduce engine and solar heat transfer by 25-30 degrees or more *Reduce noise by as much as 10-12 decibels *Protect sufaces from moisture and corrosion *Withstand temperatures to 500 degrees F (260 C) *Class 'A' fire rated, does not support combustion The stuff is made for 'exactly' this application. |
