WBODY Headers, anyone use them?





They don't extend into the water jacket. That being said, stock bolts do come out with sealant on them from the factory. I just throw some liquid teflon on the threads before I put them back in.
 
I installed a set last fall and i love them. only thing i had to do is put some tin foil under the clamp to get rid of a very small leak. Also do an egr delete it will save you a headache on install. They run great tho.

MY car's about to go through smog testing I don't know if an egr delete would work.

Do you have a converter, resonator, mufflers?

As long as the EGR code is removed...I've never heard of a 3800 having issues passing smog...and canada is way more strenuous...and people pass with EGR deleted cars up there.

I honestly wouldn't be worried man.
 
The way you have to wedge the back header in its just alot easier to just remove the egr system and then wiggle and cram. lol
 


They don't care about anything except it passes the sniff test, stops good and the lights, wipers, and horn works. They don't even really look for an engine light.
 
DE should be a visual and plug in state.

If you disabled the EGR, I'd suggest leaving it in a V and P state. Disable it in the programming. I'm probably the only guy that was fully built, intercooled and still had an EGR on the motor to pass inspection. ;)
