RIGHT SIDE ASSEMBLY (CONTINUATION):
6. Place black retainer clip back on valve cover stud and
make sure the heater hoses are laying in their stock place
and out of harm's way.
7. Place right header into position with gasket and start all
bolts, lock washers, and hardened washers. Use anti-
seize compound on all header bolts before starting. Now,
tighten evenly from the center out.
NOTE: There is a metal locking tab on the upper control
A-arms bolt that might interfere with the installation of
the headers. If needed, cut and shorten this tab to allow
clearance of headers.

the steering shaft from the steering box.
2. Remove heat shield from stock manifold.
3. Remove manifold bolts.
4. Remove stock manifold and gasket.

6. Install the new heat shield stamped #25-9382 in the
same manner as the right assembly (steps #4, #5, and
#6).

seize on bolts, start all bolts, lock washers, and hardened

8. Re-install the starter.
9. Re-connect steering shaft to steering box and tighten.
10. Remove the bolt and separate steering shaft just above
the universal joint. Take the heat shield sleeve (supplied
in hardware kit) and slide it over the rubber below on the
steering shaft and then re-connect the shaft back
together with the universal joint and tighten.
FINAL ASSEMBLY:
1.
Place donut gaskets on both left and right headers.
2.
Re-attach stock exhaust pipes to both headers using
supplied hardware.
3.
Re-attach O2 sensors.
4.
Re-connect battery.
5.
At this point, it is a good idea to look over the complete
installation to be sure nothing was missed. Check all
hydraulic, vacuum and fuel lines, and wire looms to
ensure there is adequate clearance to exhaust
components.
6.
Start vehicle and bring up to normal temperature and
check for possible leaks, correct as necessary.
7.
Turn engine off and let cool then re-tighten all bolts
again (do not do while hot!). Note: Periodically
check header bolts to ensure a tight seal for best
performance.
8.
Re-install inner fender wells.
9.
Re-install front wheels, torque to factory specifications.
