Well Saturday was kind of a bust, we have had a bit of snow (8") with lots of wind late last week so there was lots of drifting on top of the snow fall. Wife took the little guy on a journey so I was planning on getting some work done, but first deal with the snow. Go to start the quad to push some snow wont start, pull the air box remove the filter, check to see if its getting gas, yes lots of gas. Pull the plug to check for spark, no spark. Find coil, check wire connections, seem ok. ecu can't even find it but I know it needs 6 volts to fire the plug and I know the battery is low from cranking. Grab the spare battery hook up the jumper cables still will not start. Call a friend to see if he has any insight, check the kill switch he says, wiggle the switch hit the start button and vroom. Ok so couple hours of wasted time battery is still low but it should charge as I drive pushing snow. Get the first good push of snow into the pile, hit the button to lift the blade and the battery goes dead quad dies. Grab spare battery and boost cables hook it up, spare battery is also pretty much dead. Get the truck hook up the cables to it let it run charging the quad battery for a few minutes quad starts, put truck away, cable and spare battery in garage and put the charger on it. Get back on the quad get the driveway cleared, move the dak R/T over to make room to start working on the car. Garage is a mess so I decide to clean up a little so I get a fresh start. By this time its been almost 5 hours and I have not done anything on the car. Get the car moved over get it up on the jack stands, remove the rad and the turbo mounts I made that I won't be using. Lets try the new headers and see if what I was planning will work. Passenger side header bolts onto the engine, clears k-frame, but collector is very close to the side of the oil pan. Try the drivers side, no go front tube hits on the engine mount, #5 tube hits on the mid shaft from steering column to the rack. Cut the spot welds holding on the tube and remove it, remove mid shaft, try the header again and it bolts to the engine. There is a little room between the 5 tube a column, but not enough to fit the mid shaft cause its right were the u-joint is. Just for ***** and giggles I go into the house and grab the wrong headers that S&P sent which are there mid lengths. I am standing there with one header in each hand looking in the engine bay thinking ok where are the turbo's going this time and will these headers fit going forward. Only one way to find out, remove the alternator slide the pass side header in. Almost fits, slide the drivers side in and same thing. Ok now the gears are turning, I need to move 3 tubes on the drivers side and all four on the passenger side to move the collector away from the oil pan with the tight tuck headers. Passenger side fits but I am not happy on how it fits. Buy that time it was early evening wife was home and it was time to call it a day.
