Leave it up to me to break it.

Looks like theres some kind of bracket missing from the bottom. I bet thats what did it.
I'll weld it back up tomorrow.

Dude get headers! They aren't that bad for just the raw headers then send em somewhere for coating. You have the "hard one" off!

Wife right now=
Wife after headers=

Maybe next year. I really cant do it right now. I usually spend approx. 1000.00 a year on it. After the radio and paint I'm just over that.

Its Illinois man. I passed in the 3L with my headers on.
OBDII testing man, plug it in and let you go!

Tell the wife it's preventitive maintenance. So what just happened doesnt happen again.

Any questions?

W3rd. Tell her welding the flange is a no go since it won't sit flush with the block and 1 manifold from for is $600. Or you could get both for $300-400.
