ED1RTY 2 Report post Posted April 16, 2007 Headers look ok, engine mounts look pretty dodgy though.... will they pass a cert?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drifty325i 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2007 (edited) Headers look ok, engine mounts look pretty dodgy though.... will they pass a cert?? year as i said ubove the engine mounts arent unfinished in those photos (we have done ALOT of work in that area and they will pass easy) 1uzfe lexus v8 engines dont really respond to headers much (10/15hp tops) and we needed to go custom to fit in the engine bay, also in most of those photos the headers arent finished and they look alot better now.
