Putting the some new mods on this weekend!!!

1997Stang · April 14th, 2008, 06:38 PM

Ok so this weekend im putting on my bbk long tube headers, catted h pipe, and centerforce DF clutch kit. Is their anything special i need to do this stuff or does everything come with the parts? By the way i ordered ford racing heavy duty pilot bearing and throw out bearing and an alignment tool.

Thanks,
Mike

ur going to need to drop the K member to do the headers. And i suggest a ford gasket set, felpro gasket set, or percys gaskets. Also use stage 8 locking header bolts.

So about how long do you think it will take me to put all this stuff on?

a day probably... a clutch job by itself took me 4 hours not including the running around i had to do to get some things i was missing plus, that was in 28 degree night in december in my driveway..at night lol...

More then a day droping the k member shouldnt take long but getting to the bolts geting them out new ones on new bolts and geting the k member back up should take you a day. Does the clutch come with a new cable? If not i would do a new cable with the adjuster on the fire wall.Hell you might as well do a ripper shifter to seeing how you have to take it off anyway.lol

shuld be able to do it all in a weekend... if u do the header install straight through with no breaks n dont mind getting hurt, it shuld go fairly quickly
