PLEASE READ BEFORE PROCEEDING
PerTronix.thanks you for choosing a JBA Performance Exhaust Product. To
realize the potential of JBA’s engineering and excellent fit, Please Read and
Understand these instructions completely prior to starting the installation.
Check that you received all the parts listed on the parts list, if you have
any concerns, please contact PerTronix before continuing. Headers will have
the part number stamped in the flange. Work Smart — Work Safe! Most Header and
Exhaust Installation are best performed on a lift. If a lift is not available,
raise the vehicle and support on quality Jack Stands on level ground. Do not
rely on a jack! We use sealing beads on all our headers. The raised bead
creates a better seal virtually eliminating leaks if installed properly. It is
important to install all header bolts lightly snug and then tighten to factory
torque specs starting in the center and working outward. Before starting,
allow the vehicle to cool, disconnect the battery, and spray a penetrating oil
on all hardware and fittings that will need to be removed. Once you remove
your manifold, clean the sealing surface on the head of any old gasket debris
or carbon build up.
