Finished

OK - job is done.

Installed and removed four time each side for fitting and drilling. What a pain! Some holes were off by as much as 1/4inch. The other flange with three holes lined up fine.

When/if I ever have to get involved in there again I'll be looking at some heliocoils to keep things strong. Not a good situation, and again I was stripping the first few threads just with my fingers - that is some soft material!

I assume the five hundred dollar headers are perfect, and hey maybe so are every other set of one hundred dollar headers, and I just got the bad one. But I'm telling you check first before against your stock gasket before you start installing.
