Re: Continuous problems with leaky shorty headers (GlockLT4)
Well.. the header is trashed :(.... turns out there are cracks all the way around there and to weld it like that I would have to have the coating taken off a new flange put on and everything. At $75/hour at this shop... HELL no. Bought the paif for $180 from someone off the forum, so i'm going to see if I can't find another set or one (preferably). I might think about long tubes as well since this one is trashed. The driver's side is fine though... :( :banghead:

... moving them puts them farther from the engine and lets them cool a bit... causing them to not work well.

A good main cat is all any car needs. Look at the Z06s, they have no pre-cats anymore.

Glock, what brand of header are you using currently?
BTW: A good set of LT headers can be a nice thing to have...
The only BAD thing about LT's is they put a lot of heat in the passenger compartment.
