Posted: Thu Apr 08, 2004 6:00 am Post subject: Before installing headers
Ordered a complete exhaust system from jegs along with the headers. Got it yesterday. After looking at everything and looking at my Elky, I noticed that I just might need some kind of bracket or spacer to space my A.C. away from the block to keep the original bracket, or do I need a new bracket? I need to install the system in one day because my wifes car was rearended tuesday by a volvo and totaled. Once I start, I need to get it finished. Anyone know of anything I need to get before I start? _________________ Old chevys never die, they just run better

You should be able to use the old bracket but you are correct that you will have to use spacers. You can fabricate spacers from thick walled tubing or pipe: in a pinch a stack of washers will do. _________________ 1979 El Camino\r\n1955 Chevrolet Del Ray\r\n1962 Corvette\r\n1966 Corvette Coupe
