92hatchback · June 29th, 2008, 10:26 AM

so i just put my shorty headers on my 92 gt yesturday and it seemed like it was going on fine.. so we start the ca up and i have a huge exhaust leak we made sure all the bolts were tight and the gasket was fine, also we checked the collectors and they were cranked on too. i was just wondering if ne one had anymore suggestions on what it could be im running out of ideas.

take it apart and reseat it. if that doesn't work than it's the gasket.
