I put on the long tubes this weekend and I have a problem the driver side front smog piping does not match to the header it is way off. What can I do about it? Fat exhaust leak and sounds nasty. [Mad] Does any body know where I can get someone to cut and bend the piping to match it to the header?

What headers did you go with? are you talking about the smog tube that goes from the header to the intake? You should of installed that when the motoe is out. You will need to bring the motor half way out and it should wotk. Unless it bend or somthing. Good luck.

Ask questions if you have'em, anyone who thinks they're too cool, know's it all, or doesn't want to look stupid has more problems than you.
