Re: Dynatech Headers
That makes sense in H2s case, but mine are OBX headers and there is no plug installed or included. The hole isn't even threaded.
I was going to thread it and plug it, but it seemed the wall was too thin. Guess I could have tapped the hole in the flange.
I ended up getting a piece of steel. My kit came with a gasket.

Re: Dynatech Headers
H2Much-- I'd still like to see what your driver side header looks like, when you have a moment.

Re: Dynatech Headers
PDX, I was referring to the Dynatechs having the Allen plug on the egr port, not the OBX headers.
I can see why you are having heat problems on your plug wires on drivers side. It's because those pipes turn upwards on the drivers side. The Dynatechs don't do this - all 4 pipes turn downward and slant back.

Thanks for that info... I kind of thought so since I never heard anyone mention it before.
It's really a simple fix with heat tape and/or plug wire protector. I hope these OBX headers hold up as good as the dynatechs.
Fitment wise they were tits.

Re: Dynatech Headers
Ok, here is a pic of my headers and plugs. Sorry about the delay, yesterday was a little rainy.
Haven't really had any problems with heat yet on the plug wires, maybe the ceramic coat is helping?

Re: Dynatech Headers
Goddamn they're close, but for sure a diff design on that 3rd and maybe 4th pipe.
Hey thanks for the pics. It will help the community see a detrimental difference.
Glad your plugs aren't burning up.
The others diff I saw was dynatech cats have a nice heat shield aroun them. OBX don't.
I'll link to this post in mine so people who are shipping can shop that much better.
**edit** another nice comparison..... Mine aren't ceramic coated and are already colored rainbow. Yours, which are coated, look new and will look new for some time.
I've had ceramic coated..... They hold up well in the engine bay. :thumbsup:
