  • 2000+ manifold conversion

    I got tubular manifolds with Y pipe of 2002 Camaro and did installation yesterday. I used vipers guide. For tubular manifolds it is little bit different.
    Difficulties:
    1. Air condition tubes of the compressor are on the way.(pass side)
    2. Oil dipstick is on the way (deriver side)
    3. EGR hole is in the different location.
    4. 3` pipe by the cat is not round (bad if not welded)
    Bending those tubes makes installation possible.
    Pros:
    1.You can do your sparkplugs in 10 min
    2.I had mine painted before install – manifolds look awesome!
    3.Way better flow, especially for the price/value ratio.
    I didn’t feel any noticeable performance gains, but my muffler definitely sounds louder/deeper. So there is, probably little gain.
    Now troubles:
    First stud that I did(pass front) I have broken.. (very good start..), the rest went very easy. How would I get broken piece out?
    Ticking noise from the driver side, I guess EGR tube is not sealed. Can I just plug that hole with the bolt and be done with it? Options?

        GM finnaly realised that they manifolds s4ck, so starting from 2000 and up f-bodies got better tubular manifolds. they are still not greate like pacesetters or CIA, but def flow better. And yes , you cant beat the price for those.
