Dumb header question

[Litl Sam]

This is a dumb question but I'm a dork so here goes! Does it matter which way I put the gasket on for my JBA headers? One side has writing on it and the other doesn't. Don't make fun of me!

Hey Sam, put the metallic looking side facing the header. If it doesn't have a metallic side then I don't think it really matters.

Your not a dork! There is no stupid question. It would be stupid if you did something and didnt know if it were right or not without asking.

That back bolt on the passenger side was a pain! Looking at the room there was in there I thought the pass. side wouldn't be bad. Looked like alot room from up top! Boy, was I mistaken! I will be sore tomorrow! Thanks for the help Larry and Steve!

I just had to put new header gaskets and arp bolts, and yeah, that last bolt on the passenger side took forever with my little 3/8 wrench. Anyone with a better method? thanks

Looks nice.
I cut a small wrench in half and bent it some.Then ground around the open end of it so it would fit better.

Man that looks good, I'll just put that on my "to do" list. BTW, does anyone happen to know what size the stock headers and the JBA headers are? I came across another post that says the Basanni headers are 1 5/8". Just curious. I'm just trying to get a baseline of the stock parts.

So, can you feel a difference????

For some reason I think I got a miss or something. Idle is a little wierd. I only drove a little bit, and it seemed to lag at low rpm's.
