Usually yes, the collectors were cut off and with these JBAs the power steering pump is in the way. Tracy is going to try and fab up a new bracket for it to move it up.

So both headers will be facing towards the grille right? Then come around and meet where? (where turbo sits i'm assuming) havent seen the pics yet..

Yes sir..
The headers point towards the front of the truck, a new crossover pipe is going down under the front of the oil pan and then over to the other header then both will go into the turbo.

It can be done different ways. Some people leave the driver side header on the normal way, have a crossover pipe go around the back and into a new log manifold on the passide.

Yeah, mine is (will be :jester set up just like your second description.

So which header will be custom fabbed to accept the crossover under the oil pan?

Well both of the JBAs had their collectors cut off, the co pipe is currently tacked to the driver side and stops under the oil pan. Im thinking the pass side will come out and go up and the driver side will join it right before they go into the turbo. Can you not see photobucket?

Going out to the shop today after work, hope to get some updated pix!

i was thinking about it today................ it would be some more bends but would clear the PS issue. run the header normal just have it "U" and head back towards the front. clearance shouldn't be an issue. granted you have already fabbed all that up but for the others watching this thread

Pretty much. :jester:

I think the CO pipe is done and he just has to bring the pipes into the turbo flange now.

yeah it probably would help but i think the less bends the better.. i may be wrong tho

the quicker to the turbo the better but its all of a extra 2 feet at the most. not sure it would matter that much

His heads are going to be the restriction on the truck.
No matter its not like he's short hp now anyway.
If he gets traction he's gonna start breaking shit left and right...hehe

 

[mrkindweiler]

k now that i'm at home i saw the pictures. interesting!

 

[Fast360Dak]

Yea yea..Im sure 600+ with my shitty ported heads wont be an issue. I'll eventually get some better heads down the road.

[Fast360Dak]
