it shouldn't take too long, I mean I did get the cam for performance so damnit, that's what I'm gonna get...is pacesetter the only manufacturer for our headers now?

Yes pacesetter is the only company that makes a HEADER for our type of cars.
dc sports makes headers to for my car 87 accord lxi 4dr fule injected and they cost 360 and they are better cant wait to get it im gonna order it from a speed shop from around where i live and spark plug wires im gonna are 120 they start with a v for the name they are blue but before i put all that in i got to put new engine gaskets in cuz there is a small oil leak well later
dc sports no longer manufactures the header for our cars... shops may have one lying around in their warehouse, so it can help to shop around. for all intents and purposes, pacesetter is the only company you could easily acquire a header and downpipe from.

You could get a 4-1 from S&S... or you can wait...
...and get one from me, I've found most of the places I need to get the materials I want... stainless steelit will be a bit pricey... I was thinking of doing a shorty header... only because it would lessen the cost considerably but still hopefully gain over stock 4-1 Carb and 4-2-1 EFI, just because of the larger tube diameter.
Problem is I need a stock dx or lx to work on so I can line up the system to the cat...
...BTW my welding has improved a bunch since my first header.

when it comes to headers, well, pacessetter makes them, they are cheap, but they work.
S&S makes them but they are twice as expensive as pacessetter.
it all depends on your budget. i would just go with pacessetter and be done with it. i have them. i had pacessetter for over 2 years now. no rust, no problem. you just have to strip the paint and power coat them or paint with high temp paint and bake them in the oven to get the paint bond to the metal.

I think that's what I'm gonna do...just be glad that someone still makes em for us and get it without any hassle....what about full exhaust? is it basically custom?

Hey, Mike. What gauge/size stainless piping are you using for your header?
"Feed their greed with your need for speed"
.065 .060? I believe it's 16.... I think I need 12 - 14 guage for turbo but maybe not?

If you need EGR and AS hook ups I should be able to acommodate them... but I'll need a stock car to get it alligned right.

Hmm... Back to on topic for this thread... I just installed Colts mild tri-flow cam and i do feel a difference. I'll put in a better fuel pump soon and see how much that helps... But overall I do like how she pulls now.
bastard!!!!
