Standard Headers

Post by dulaeng » Sun Apr 29, 2012 11:34 pm

Hi All hope some one will know how to remove the flange ring from std. headers. I have just made some alloy clamps to put on with split collet type rings & weld on a flang to retain

I havnt had mine off yet, but by all accounts on here they are a bitch to get off.
Buy yourself either a first aid kit for knuckles or a thick pair of leather gloves, and a reasonable size hammer.......

Hi am I right in thinking they are a sort of hammer on type fit as there does not appear to be any weld or spot weld.
