| Post subject: | exhaust question |
just found that my exhaust manifold is cracked on my sierra between cyl 3&4 i want to get this fixed asap will it hurt the engine driving with the manifold like this also should i put the heat shroud back on (will it cause the engine to run hot if i dont)? |

Go and buy a set of extractors or get another stock manifold. I doubt driving it like that will cause any damage to the engine. The heat shroud was one of the first things I took off my first sierra (along with the swaybar  ). It wont affect the engine at all by removing it.

Not sure what engine you have under the hood of your Sierra, but there are a few options on ebay for Extractors - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Suzuki-Sierra-Dr ... 3cb1c773f1 I bought Vit ones of this seller, and they were good and well made, and they have free delivery... they do have 1L & 1.3L, but only 1.3L listed at the moment, maybe contact them, and see if they have any, if its 1L

Nice link to get extractors from MacBear, i had a look at their website (link from the ebay site to www.maxheaders.com.au) and found they are $20 cheaper if you buy from them direct - not on the ebay store. Probably the paypal costs. |

( That link you put up, has a " ) " on the end, which makes it a dead link ) |

Bet your happy
That little bit of poke will increase over time, its like its clearing out all the crap, or adjusting to it, but yeah it will feel even better over time... so how does it sound, did you get some noise, or keep it fairly quiet ?
