  • This video is the first of a series of clips focused on upgrades to the C6 Corvette. You will see me remove the stock exhaust system and install a pair of Speed Engineering long tube headers in PT1. This is a follow up to the comparison video between Texas Speed and Speed Engineering.

    Perfect music for header install. I will be putting on my pfadt tri y headers and midpipe on my gs this summer.

    Looking forward to the rest of this. Can't wait to see your overall thoughts on the Speed Engineering product and hear what you thought of the install. I'll be doing mine myself as well.

    Finally, someone wearing safety glasses. :)
    No anti-seize on the new header bolts???

  • @arrowhead455
    @arrowhead455 Před 4 měsíci +2

    A tip on loosening those bolts - tighten 1/8th turn before cracking them loose. I know, counterintuitive, but it releases the threads and keeps you from breaking any bolts.

      All of this is on the drop down on Speed Engineering's site and much cheaper if bought through them.

    Off topic but you use a low car jack or a regular one? I’m about to get a GS and I want to know if my current jack is fine

  • @shawnalston988
    @shawnalston988 Před 2 lety +1

    How long ago did you order those headers? Reason I’m asking is speed engineering discontinued that long style header and went to a smaller mid length header which a lot of people don’t like now

    • @smokingasphalt8050

      Interesting, this was purchased March 22’

      I agree I just purchased the new style headers!!!! What a pain to install them way different from any of this videos I’ve seen on here. If I would of known they went differently I’d never purchased them

    Did these hook up to the stock mufflers? I’m trying to install on my GS now and can’t get the slip joints to line up with the mufflers

    • @smokingasphalt8050
      @smokingasphalt8050  Před rokem +1

      Yes these lined right up with the stock over the axle pipes. The kit came with mid pipes for GS, ZO6, or base.
