toyminator2000 – There has to be dumb people in order for there to be smart people
His or mine??
ok: me, not exactly stock, but pretty close. header, hiflow cat and 2 1/4". why?
That can happen from the header having to support any weight. When running the exhaust pipe, cat muffler and tail pipe make sure the header is not having to support any weight or over time it will crack.
i say run a sstraight header out the hood, no more problems
you need to un weld it at the end of the header befor the cat, i use a extended slip joint, plenty tight with minimal leak, but allows the engine flex and keeps the pipe from causing twisting force on the header
The plate you have here for protection is really hampering the ability of the system to move when the engine flexes on the mount or the frame flexes during articulation, might wanna try and loosen it up a bit?edit: The way yours cracked, I would bet that this section failed to let the system move and it was engine movement (torqueing) that actually caused the crack. The flex joint between the cat and header would solve this problem.
Factory down tube had a clamp at the bellhousing to stabilize the header. Do you still have this? If not, try it.
