Subject:      S&S header system: opinions??
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello all, I recently purchased and had installed an S&S header system for my 87 syncro. S&S sells the same header system for syncro and non-syncro vans, so anyone that has an S&S system can respond.

If you have an S&S header system, how well did it install/fit? Any problems with misaligned flanges at the cylinder head? On your system, how were the sleve fittings leading into the 4 into 1 collector secured??

On my system the flange for the right rear cylinder head does not lie flush, resulting in a leak. Also my mechanic used U-clamps to secure the sleve fittings and one of them is not completely sealed--another leak.

thanks and happy weekend, Fred Porter
