I had thought about putting headers on my 86 Z28 305 TPI but after watching your video I don't think I will attempt it.. I have to give you an A for effort though. I liked your video and will be waiting for new content from you.
Usually, Brother, you can get 2 flanges and a y pipe and have an exhaust shop make a pipe for you Flowmaster makes y pipes that can be fabricated into a full pipe for a cat. I would also recommend replacing with a 3 inch cat. GM generally screws up their exhaust systems on their high performance cars. This is one of the flaws on their 305 camaros. NEXT TIME you do this, get gloves from the auto parts store, so you can protect your hands."
I have a 83 Z28 with a 305 I got Hedman shorties I want to install but…after watching the video I’m not going there I’ll save up and pay a shop you’re brave I commend you for tackling the install
Good job mate it’s very stressful job ay I’m putting mine back together at the moment I was nearly gonna push the car down the driveway poor some fuel on and let roll down on fire I done top end rebuild I’ve got fun part left to do passenger side I’ve got ay 82 RS convertible 🤙
I've been debating doing this as I need to replace the valve stem seals where I'll need easy access to the spark plugs so may as well rip the exhaust all off at the time. You are lucky you only took the skin off two of your knuckles, I managed that just replacing the power steering pump.
i have the same car bud. i put carb intake and headers. next is burnouts in the 5 speed. sounds fun to me.. i plan on doing a ls truck engine swap . you need to stop being so hard on yourself. im just learning this mechanic stuff as well. keep trying til you get it. unless you have labor cash then pay for it. i watch a lot of vdiy videos.
My 89 iroc has a 305 ho from a 86 monte also have headers that go into glass pack then dump out als have a edelbrock intake and a demon 625 cfm 4 barrell with a mild cam it sounds decent
I have that on my 91 rs factory with headers it was all good until i went 3inch y n no cat doing that killed my up n go power i wish i coukd go back to headers n factory y pipe
Nooo Y pipe you need dual exhaust two straight pipes and then I would have two flow master 10’s put on behind the rear axle it will roar like a beast that’s one of the reasons people put headers on
Bro🔥🔥🔥 I appreciate you making his video cuz I was thinking about getting some headers for the LT1 I'm actually still thinking about it cuz I'm not really sure if I want to do a LS.I thought you had to get the car tuned after you get headers. 🤔 But she does look a lot better. I think she'll sound a little meaner and cuz it'll be more airflow coming out
Man you did a good job for a back yard mechanic I have a 87 and yeah it's time consuming but the reward will pay off
Yes most definitely and thanks for checking out the video #pvosquad
Hey man good job sticking it out yourself and getting it done . Your cars are nice . God bless .
Thank you I appreciate that
Agreed.
Great video man! Great edits too, you making me want to start working on my 93 z28
Get out there and do it. Step by step and this time next year you’ll look back and be glad you did. 💯%

You can do it! Just take your time and everything will come out as planned

Yeah I was there also. Don’t give up on it just yet.
Good job! I know your struggle I just did mine on my 87 monte carlo..
That good just do it showed you can do anything brother
For real bro. Thanks for checking out the video.
I've been debating doing this as I need to replace the valve stem seals where I'll need easy access to the spark plugs so may as well rip the exhaust all off at the time. You are lucky you only took the skin off two of your knuckles, I managed that just replacing the power steering pump.
Man for real it was crazy.
i have the same car bud. i put carb intake and headers. next is burnouts in the 5 speed. sounds fun to me.. i plan on doing a ls truck engine swap . you need to stop being so hard on yourself. im just learning this mechanic stuff as well. keep trying til you get it. unless you have labor cash then pay for it. i watch a lot of vdiy videos.
I appreciate that and keep up the great work.
Nice job man!
My 89 iroc has a 305 ho from a 86 monte also have headers that go into glass pack then dump out als have a edelbrock intake and a demon 625 cfm 4 barrell with a mild cam it sounds decent
Great video
Thanks I appreciate that.
Where’d you get the rims at they look fire I want to get them for my iroc
found them on offer up and 22s are perfect for these cars
Good job
Thanks
Good job bro. I have a 92 rs same exact engine , got a set of long tube headers wanting to put them on my ride .
I have that on my 91 rs factory with headers it was all good until i went 3inch y n no cat doing that killed my up n go power i wish i coukd go back to headers n factory y pipe
Why didn’t you wrap the headers? Clean job though
Didn’t think about that. The job was so hard I just wanted it to be over lol #pvosquad
HEADER wrap can destroy headers. NOT a good idea.
Nooo Y pipe you need dual exhaust two straight pipes and then I would have two flow master 10’s put on behind the rear axle it will roar like a beast that’s one of the reasons people put headers on
If i could go back and do it over i totally would but it was a lesson learned for next time.
Okay I just heard you say don’t change the headers . Lol 😂
yeah i did say that because of all the problems i ran into but now you know what youre getting yourself into lol
Bro🔥🔥🔥 I appreciate you making his video cuz I was thinking about getting some headers for the LT1 I'm actually still thinking about it cuz I'm not really sure if I want to do a LS.I thought you had to get the car tuned after you get headers. 🤔 But she does look a lot better. I think she'll sound a little meaner and cuz it'll be more airflow coming out
I dk if you have to get a tune after just headers or anything and I hope it changes the sound of it. I need it to sound faster than it look lol
Lol I feel you
Rollin96ss on INSTAGRAM the mustang hasn’t gotten tuned and that thang wide open lol
What type and brand of headers you have on the car great job no matter the fight
No brand from eBay. Under 100 bucks
Did u let them warm up b4 taking the bolts off? Or just did it cold
How much would a mechanic charge me to take some headers , I’m always working so I’m okay with letting someone else work on it .
Bro! pass the link to the headers please, I wanna do the same to my Camaro.
got them off of ebay and this video kinda old but let me see if i can bring it up on my profile
@@PVOSQUAD365 Thanks, Bro!! I just got my Camaro and I am looking to do the headers as my first upgrade.
They ant that bad you just have to show it who the boss
Headers are always easier if you use an engine puller and raise the engine up and the to the left or right
Depending on which header your working on
Hopefully you will get a pressure washer and clean the engine bay completely before doing work…it will make your life better
