ZOOMIE HEADER WELD-UP KIT Installation Instructions READ COMPLETELY BEFORE STARTING:Your vehicle must be raised to a minimum of 36 inches to allow proper working clearance. A floor hoist is strongly recommended. If a hoist is not available, we strongly urge the use of heavy-duty axle stands as a safety measure.
CAUTION: Do NOT support the vehicle using a bumper jack under any circumstances.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:TUBE IDENTIFICATION: #1 (78 Deg) / #2 (81 Deg) / #3 (84 Deg) / #4 (87 Deg) 1. Mount Header Flange: Bolt the header flange plate securely to the cylinder head (Pipes are numbered 1 through 4). 2. Install Tube #1: Insert Tube #1 into the #1 (first) cylinder position. Trim or shorten the tube so the first bend is at the desired length and position. 3. Fit Cover Tube: Slide the cover tube over Tube #1. Hold it up to the flange and mark the correct angle. Cut the cover tube so it sits flush against the flange. 4. Tack Weld Tube #1 Assembly: Tack weld the inner tube to the inside of the flange (Heli-arc/TIG welding recommended). Tack weld the cover tube to the outside of the flange. 5. Repeat for Remaining Tubes: Repeat the same procedure for Tubes #2 (81 Deg), #3 (84 Deg), and #4 (87 Deg): position, trim, fit cover tube, mark, cut, and tack weld. 6. Final Welding: Once all tubes are installed and angles are verified, fully weld all joints. Ensure clean, complete welds for durability and performance. 7. Right-Side Header: Repeat all steps beginning with Tube #1 for the right-side header assembly. FINAL NOTES:Double-check all clearances before final welding. Ensure proper alignment for optimal performance and fitment. Professional welding is recommended for best results. 8858 Painter Ave, Suite E, Whittier, CA 90602 Tech Line: 562/945-7669 E-mail: sales@dragparts.com |
