clear image header problem

[zero]

Ok, so yesterday i ordered the clear image headers,the y pipe, and the gaskets from FTP. Then today i get a email saying that clear image is haveing problems with there supplier! So FTP says they can not fill my order!!!!! really pissed me off so tm im calling clear image to find out if i can still get a set. Has anyone else had this problem? And does anyone know where i could buy some more ,or what r some other good headers. thank you

</font>[/QUOTE]they sent me the wrong set the first time. then they couldn't tell me what size bolts to use. kinda odd since they would need to test fit them to make sure everyting fits, which it does not. the primaries are bent so close to the head that I cannot get all the bolts in on the passenger side, once I got the correct bolt size.

I say that because i havent been able to permanently fix my leaks with the pacesetters, and just warning him ahead of time..and i havent heard any leaking problems with the CIA headers. So now i wish i woulda spent the couple hundred extra at the one time because i've already spent more money on the pacesetters than the CIA headers cost, and i still am not satisfied. And not to mention the headache they cause.

Everyone who has a problem to seal headers, even everyone who is planning to put aftermarket headers SHOULD do 2 cuts in the flange of the each header before installing them. This will avoid a warpage on thermal expansion.

The pacesetters are fine.
They use header bolts, if I am not mistaken. I don't now what kind they are either, just header bolts in the performance isle of an auto zone.
Use a paper gasker with ultra copper on it.
Some bolts may have to be put in from underneath the car.
