Is this a 2.4 Header?
Sunday, March 13, 2005 6:05 PM
i just bought this header for my 99 Z24, it looks custom made, the person i bought it from says its off a 2.4, will this fit a 99? and will i see any gains over stock? the tubes look sorta small to me.

RK sport made this header???

Oh, i forgot to ask, the O2 sensor screw is at the top on one of the tubes, but all the headers on ebay have them at the bottom where all the 4 tubes meet, does that make a difference?

Yeah it does. It can only measure the O2 content using one cylinder, so if you have one rich cylinder, the rest of your engine will run lean.

I wouldnt worry about it.Ive had that header on my car for like 5 years,and the o2 sensor has never been an issue.If i were you,id clean it up good,cut the end piece off the header and weld a flex pipe on there.

no, its in OK condition, the only problem i found with it is 2 of the tubes at the end (where they all meet) need to be grinded, they have some crap building up on them, it looks kinda like weld...........


ptrblkz24.... Is this what you ment?

definately clean the welds up a bit, good tank bath wouldnt hurt either.

I'd suggest Plugging up the O2 sensor and drilling a hole at the bottom where the 4 tubes meet. and welding on a new 22mm bolt.

i was thinking that too, but i checked some hardware stores and home Depot and i can't find a nut that i can weld onto there that has the threads for the O2 sensor.....

Exhaust shop could weld in the bung.
But they'll probably wanna charge like a million dollars to do it.
