just buy a budbuilt skid plate with the belly pan, it'll be fine.

 

3vze ERG valve

 

how did i miss this????? freaking awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! mak you need another exhaust video

 

it was put back on along time ago. lol and videos of pismo will be coming eventually.

 

haha obvs but i missed it lol k good wish my 3vze was worth keeping so i could run your exhaust next year if i go 3.4 its getting full exhaust and that borla heh. whens the SAS happening?

 

lol SAS is just an idea... probably wont happen.

 

haha you should just do it! do a 3" front and make the front hanger up higher and shorter shackles, low profile bump stops and run your 33"s . like Vance said when he sas'd, he could just point it somwhere and it would go right over it without lockers even :O will be so sick haha

 

hey guys i had a question, is there any flex pipe on the 505s? iv been waiting for mine for 2 and a half months now. And still not sure when they are going to arrive. Last thing i heard was they were waiting on flex pipe..

 

glad to see your willing to learn and do your own wrenching even though your not that experianced, its a great thing to learn and there is nothing like doing your own work. Don't mind kawasaki his hour exhaust system probably consists of a dryer vent hose and some pvc. my compliments man, keep up the good work

 

lol Kawasaki is a RL friend of mine. Has been since i was like in 10th grade. I know he's just bustin my balls, so no biggie.

Heres a small update:

3 of the headbolts backed out yesterday! I had them replaced with factory head bolts but man, the exhaust leak was massive... Had to replace the gasket too as they were burned up. Valves are fine as well

 

hey man i am doing this install right now and i have come to the part of connecting the reed valve to the headers and its not lining up at all so i guess im just wondering if you had a problem with this and if so how did you do it. thanks in advance

 

I'll need some pictures.

 

ok so i tried to post a pic but it said it failed. but all it is is the copper tube going from the reed valve straight to the header

 

the copper tube is straight junk... but the only way to get it to work is unbolt the reed valve, put the reed valve on the copper tube, and call it good. the valve will be loose at this point, but it'll be functional still. the only way to get it to bolt to the block, is to get a flex hose like the EGR valve.

 

that's what i figured but i just dont understand why they would send that if it doesn't work. ok well thanks for being the bearer of bad news lol. thanks for your time man

 

it wont hurt anything, I ran it like this for awhile. and it did fine. just be sure to find a hose. I used the one off my stock manifold. cut it off, and put it on.

 

ya i would but i had to cut the hell out of that thing just to get it off. the threads were rusted on there.

 

lol nice.

 

ok so i took your advice about unhooking the reed valve so now its just hanging there it looks like it should be good so thanks for that. i have one more ? though, did you have any problem with the piece of exhaust pipe with the o2 sensor hole in it the flange to bolt on the o2 sensor is welded off center so that the nut will not screw on to the bolt , it might just be mine so im going to call and see if they will send me a new one. i hope they do

 

elk, i had the same probs your talking about. For the o2 sensor, i just ground down the side/corner of one nut so it would slide in far enough for the bolt to thread thru. Also works to hold the nut so you only need 1 wrench to tighten
