Getting headers
I am looking at installing some headers on my 96 Ford Bronco, any ideas on what diameter, brand and I was think of taking of the CATS and putting two Flowmasters, I also want to buy an throttle body spacer and it has a K&N Filter. Any ideas or suggestion would be helpful and appreciated.
I also used the search button, but nothing much came up.
I don't plan on selling it and it already has passed smog. So I don't know if having the CATS is a plus or not
Thanks,
Albert

Re: Getting headers
I am not for sure on this but It might mess the computer to by-pass the o2 sensor, but it might not, Oh and dont get hedman headers they suck, Id get hookers for your rig and 40 series flowmaster dumped under the cab with 3 inch piping, it will sound sick

I just wanted to point out that, the fine for not having 'cats' is pretty hefty in California.

Re: Getting headers
Certain areas are deemed not as important by the California SMOG nazis and a smog check is not required. Here are the 6 counties that have specific areas where a smog check is not required: El Dorado, Placer, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, and Sonoma - use this lookup tool to find a ZIP code that does NOT require a smog check: http://www.smogcheck.ca.gov/Applicat...ZipLookup.aspx
When I lived in Tahoe my ZIP code was 96150. Still no smog required.

better lucky than good...

Only on change of ownership or you get caught with modified smog equipment.
