Install the four header mounting flanges and spigots using the OEM nuts as shown (Figure 9). We also reuse the OEM gaskets. Do not completely tighten the nuts. Leaving them finger tight will allow easier adjustment when the header pipes are fitted. The nuts will be fully tightened after the header pipes are installed.
