i was wondering if i was needing to buy anything else to get these installed. like O2 sensor extensions. and i heard the dip stick has clearance issues when putting long tubes in. i have an 03 mach 1 btw

i had bbk longtubes installed just a few weeks ago. first off great buy you're going to LOVE THEM!!!!

anyways, 1st) the shitty ass compressed fiber gaskets taht come with them SUCK i was sheisty and didnt want to shell out an extra 50 to get some copper ones and i paid the price. BOTH header gaskets leaked... dont make the same mistake i did pick up some copper ones from summit and do it right the first time

yes you'll need the o2 extension harness for both sides if you dont want to extend them yourself

you'll need a new "shorty" midpipe (h/x/prochmber) to compensate for the added length of the header

and if you get an offroad h/x pipe (no cats) you'll probably want to get some MIL eliminators to avoid throwin a check engine light

dipstick was a problem.. i had to give them permission to bend it around one of the flanges which i really dont care... however the heat is causing it to melt a bit lol i have some smoke that comes out from under my hood every once in while that smells like wires melting.. :x
