      He has 😁 said the 2.0 90% of the time has a crack in one of the lobes under the cam shaft. the 2.3 is a better engine. Anything bigger and it will take lots of cutting, you may also throw off the vehicles center of gravity 🫣

    I did a 3k carb swap and distributor recurve on my 88. Header did seem to wake those mods up. Definitely better pull out of the hole with my 30 inch mudders, but not the kind of results you get from a big V8.

    i have a header like this on my Samurai and the best part is the sound and lack of exhaust leaks. My OEM exhaust manifold wasnt cracked, but it still would leak from every connection, so in my opinion, headers are worth the money just for that reason. Power wise, gains are unnoticable.

    Hey Tony since you asked, I have to ask your opinion on the harley carbs like the one from Zuks-Offroad in AZ, there seems to be many different ones. Are they dependable, have more power etc? I'm sure we'd all like to see a video from you about those.

    Appreciate you, Tony. I run the Doug T. Headers on my rock crawler, it's not that it give me "more power" but I definitely notice a difference in how clean the exhaust gasses are expelled, which creates better force for the intake, the 1.3 sohc g13 is a slug, no matter what you do it will always be a slug. It's Miller time!

    They sound better but if you want a noticeable gain on a budget, one good option is to finish it with a 2 inch exhaust, add a high flow intake or at least a snorkel and re jet the carby.
    It will power up hills like it never did before!

      @@MiloPerrotti the main point of my original comment was about re jetting. It's easy to do and drives as good as any Weber whilst not flooding on hills and only cost an hour of time and a 5 dollar jet.
      Increase in intake flow with the exhaust increase via headers makes a good set up wether cold air or high flow.
      Is that better or would you like to nit pick like a female a bit more?

    Power gain was negligible on my manual shift 93 kick 4 door 16v. Also, the o2 bunge on the header was further down requiring an o2 wire extension or universal o2. Ive, cracked 3 stock headers. Found another header at the junkyard, but this one had the block bracket. I never had one before. Intalled that bracket with the junkyard header, and it has yet to crack. That was about 10 years ago. Tony's header has the bracket still on it, and maybe that's why it's a good header. How many cracked headers didn't have the lower bracket?

    Awesome! Thanks!
    U answered a question I didn't know I had.
    Which header would u recommend purchasing for a stock '98 Tracker with a 1.6?
    Middle of my engine swap currently n progress & found my header had a hairline crack. (Didn't affect my baby's power but was noticeable every time the A/C was out & the windows were down. Hadn't checked that yet & thought it was a faulty front cat gasket, before I had to pull the engine.)
    Was planning to attempt to weld the crack. Still new at welding. U saved me the trouble & chance of dealing with future header cracks!

    If you want power, fuck no a header ain't worth it! If you want a throaty sound, hell yeah it's worth it! Plus style points!
    I spent a few weeks in college trying every single bolt on modification on multiple different engine types on both an engine dyno and a wheel dyno. Every time the stock intake made the most power and every time an unrestricted exhaust made the most power. However the intake air temperature and turbulence made a far bigger difference than the exhaust. The flipped cap on a Chevy 350 that everyone swears makes more power? 30% reduction in power over the bone stock OEM fender intake.
