I did something just a little different. The exhaust system on HiTec T is pretty heavy with the cutouts and air cylinders and such and it had to have a strong but flexible hanger. The headers and system have been in service since somewhere around 1997 or 1998 I think. I have never posted a pic, but will try to take a pic or two and learn how to post and then post; so bare with me on the timing. In the meantime, if someone wants to post for me I can email them quicker.

thanks

Here ya go . . .

Just guessing the muffler and cutouts weigh around 20 – 25 lbs per side. I knew the header could never support that kind of weight."
