Wow 30K views and I just watched the video again so patient! The LTH's are still suppling extra horses to the beast. Thanks to all for watching! C-Dogg Out!
Put BBK long tubes on my 2010 yesterday and took me 10 hours total thanks to your video! I thought I was going to have to disconnect the motor mount till I watched you. Hardest part was getting the top two center bolts in the new ones, especially on the passenger side. I used a 3in long 10mm wrench with two fingers barley on it to tighten them 😂 to my amazement there's no leaks! Swivels and extensions are a must for sure. Props to you for getting yours done and recording the video!
Wow Brother, Amazing Composure, Patience, and Determination exhibited here. This is a quality video for DIYers. I however, don't think I have the guts to attempt this without the use of a life. Every time I work on a vehicle, I soon realize why Labor Costs are so high. I usually end up Traumatized for days after a difficult job. You did a great video and despite obstacles, your persistence paid off. Congratulations on a very difficult upgrade to your Challenger! It sounds and pulls Insane!
Hey C-Dogg, thanks for the video. I'm wantin' to do the BBK's on my 6-speed '14 Challenger, too. After watching your video, I feel even more emboldened. I did some research and found out that the 1 3/4" longtubes are THE ticket for building torque and HP in our 5.7's (close to a 30 lb.ft. increase in the midrange, which you WILL feel in the shorts, as I'm sure you did). I'm tuning mine with HP Tuners, which I've already bought and started playing with. BTW, I get up to Battle Creek every now and then. TRMI is one of my customers.
I just did mine was all day at it just FYI disconnected battery when pulling headers and metal cover you have alot wires that can short out strater alternators etc once you take the cover you'll be able to se all the screws
Nice job, I just got the headers off of my 23' with no issues. I bought a pair of brand new Stainless Works 1 7/8 headers that say 09-23. I installed the driver side long tube header with 0 issues, but good lord....the passenger side I cannot get on. I ruined a thick remflex gasket taking the header out multiple times trying to line it up and get the damn thing in. I had to resort to just trying and using the OEM one that only had 4k miles on it, I just can't get these things to line up correctly. If you put the header up there without a gasket everything lines up fine! I've wasted hours and it just doesn't seem like these gaskets and the header will line up. Both headers are labeled "left and Right" and I assume Right is saying if you are in the car then passenger is implying "right side" and driver is "left side"? I don't think I have them backwards. When I get the header up there and use a jack to kind of hold it in place the last 3 holes at the front of the header and the 2 top ones just wouldn't line up and it was like if I pushed the back part of the header up the front side would go down and nothing would line up.
My favorite part of the video was the For Sale sign to convey your frustration with every Greek tragedy you encountered on this 2 day project. I saw that and burst out laughing saying yup you’re just like me
I'm picking up my 2020 challenger r/t hellraisin tomorrow... I really shouldn't be watching this LOL. I want to keep my warranty. Sounds amazing though!
Great video👍🏼👍🏼 your car sounds awesome💯💯💯i want to do this to mine but just thinking how long it can take You have so much patience 💯 makes me want to give it a try👍🏼👍🏼
I had zero experience myself and I am not gonna lie its a major PITA alone but if you got a buddy to help no worries... Best of luck let me know how it goes!
Who is the 1 douchebag that disliked this video? anyway, this almost hour video is what is needed for us DIY selfers. I apprecite this because the 8-12 minute videos that have been cut that show you quick clips are useless IMO. Good shit right here
You know you could be right I never thought to remove the fender plastic to see what access I had to the bolts. If anyone else has done that please comment and let everyone else know! Great idea Alex!
To me both side were equally hard once you get bolts started correctly and have the correct angle not to cross-thread or strip them your golden just use patience.
Oh I have had my share of beat downs just ask the Tesla driver that left me at 145 today! Not 1:45... Its all in good fun! What mods you sporting on your 300??
The headers and mid-pipes are 2 separate purchases but are required to connect to your cats back system either stock or after market. You can get catted mids or off-road mids (no cats) depending on your states emissions on cats. The BBK LT's I got were part# 40460 and the mids were part# 40461. Hope that clears things up. Basically 2 separate purchases but required to connect to the rest of your exhaust...
Hey Dogg, I just installed my BBK long tubes with the high flow cats just like you did in the video. Did you end up expanding your stock X pipe after you removed the welded on clamps because I’ve run into the same issue.
now that its been a year, have the headers changed color, rusted, or began to corrode? not sure what type of steel was used on the bbks but some header material degrades faster than other.
What did you end up doing to connect the mid pipes to the back half of exhaust? I have the stock cat back system that 2.5in but the midpipes won’t slide in
How did you go about tighting the new bolts for the long tube headers. Not enough room to get a ratchet in there at the top to get it tight what was your method?
I had every combination of swivel change adapters and extensions you could think of to get the proper angle to seat them properly. Its tough but do-able

How’d it go, and would you still do it yourself

After your install did you have a check engine light come on
No it did not.
I dont have much experience but i think imma try and do this myself instead of paying 1200 for a shop to install
