My new stainless TA headers came this week and my project this weekend was to get them on and back together.
After reading all the threads on here I can say the problems noted earlier are fixed. The flanges are flat and smooth. Ports looked nice (no pics sorry). I did have problems with the brake line on the passenger side (going to fix that today)
The biggest problem was the starter. Mine was a remanufactured starter from a local parts warehouse from 10 years ago. When I put it on I noted that the motor was bigger in diameter than stock and the solenoid was a bit bigger as well. I took it off to put the PS side on and it won't fit back in there. No problem. That cheap rebuilt sounded horrible and I've wanted a mini-starter for a while.
Anyone have any clearance problems with the mini-starters? Ones to avoid.
