Collector leak

**94Blackbird** · 01-18-2011, 03:57 PM

I have an exhaust leak that I traced to the area where the primaries come into the collector, and my question is this, what is the feasibility of effecting a repair to that area? It appears to be coming from the center or damn near it. It's a set of Dynatech long tube headers that came with the car when I bought it.

Or would I be better off replacing them?

if it is down in between the primaries where it will be hard/impossible to get to, i'd just go ahead and get a new set of headers. where are people getting dynatech headers from? i never can find them

You could have a shop cut the tube around the area and then weld the primaries inside the collector. I'll gladly take the headers off your hands if you decide to replace them.

I have no idea, they where on the car when I got it. And from what I can see with the car on the ground that looks to be where it's coming from.

I'll let you know what I decide to do with them.
