RPW Extractors- How to fit them?

[shadowarrior]

Picked up the RPW extractors from Wayne today.
These (the Y pipe) should bolt straight on to my cat box am guessing? Or do I need any other connectors?

Is it a lot of work to fit the extractors? :\

Yea it will bolt straight up.. And yes it's a pain in the f**king ass to fit! I done mine with only a scissor jack and socket and spanner set lol the main pain in the ass is the rear extractor... Front one is a piece of piss..

Just put it on see how you go? It's not a daily driver is it?

[shadowarrior]

Naah the FTO ain't my daily driver.

Don't think so but make sure u get a good gasket and use some decent manie seal u don't want that sucker to leak trust me I just found out the hard way

Thanks for the tip mate. So intake manifold seal and gaskets... any recommendation of brand/part number? Super cheap stuff or should I go to Bursons?
Is there anything I have to take off to get to the headers? :\

[Taz]

Ive got the next few days off - come round to mine ill fit them for you

[ZFL45H1]

If Taz can help out I'd go hit him up if u want to do it yourself just get manie seal from bursons and gaskets u might be able u use your old ones combined with the manie but u will have to wait and see

[Taz]

id recommend getting the gaskets anyway - as its a pain in the ass to go down the road to get them or eve worse if we fit the rear bank and find out after its all put back you should of replaced it. Youll probably have the stock gasket, and it will probably break.

[shadowarrior]

Yeah am gonna get fresh gaskets and seal, they aren't expensive and saves me from any future hassle.

Any one got any specs/part number? Or should i just ask them for fto header and intake gaskets and manifold seals?

Am guessing the part would be based on our engine's model number and not just car specific?

Thanks Taz. Are you free today or should I bring it on the Bbq day?

[Taz]

I know your burning to put them on, so bring em round today haha

[shadowarrior]

Anybody has any feedback on liquid high-temp gaskets? :\

LOL @ this thread!

As mentioned on FB Sidds, the only gasket you'll need is the collector to car flange gasket, a $3 gasket from any autoshop.

The factory header gaskets are made from thin layers of steel, so they'll be fine. And why are we pulling intake manifolds off? lol. The rear header can be completely removed from underneath. Get it up as high as possible, crawl under with your socket, socket uni joint, small extension & WD40. You'll be done in 20 mins.

Thanks Benz

@Taz hope you have a pair of jack stands? See you in a while.
