I'm Awesome
Hello! 1998 K2500, 5.7L 250,000 miles, recent new head and intake manifold gasket installation. Turned my attention to the exhaust system, and the components aren't totally rotted out, but some parts of them are. Recently patched it up to keep it going, but now the donut between the passenger side exhaust manifold, and the down tube, has disintegrated. I have an appointment in the next couple weeks for a local muffler shop to replace the entire system from the manifold back, and install true duals. The shop will not do headers, and my future goals for this motor would be to install some bolt on mods, maybe a cam swap, and try to gain another 100 hp over stock, or so. At this point, I'm looking at installing the headers myself between now and the appointment for the rest of the exhaust system. It's a big learning curve, because I don't really know anything about this part of it, so I wanted to present it to the group, and ask for suggestions for the best headers to install for my vehicle, and see if there were any pitfalls. I understand that I might also need to do an EGR delete? Thanks in advance for any thoughts you may have on this.
