Welcome to FTE!

What is it that you are trying to ask?

 

thanks for the reply monsta! i'm going to install these new headers on my truck. this is an "off highway truck" of course. i want to know what to do with the tube that comes off the manifold on the drivers side. do you just cap it off. is there anything on the passenger side like it. i couldnt see anything. do you have them on your rig? thanks again.

 

That tube off the manifold is for your EGR valve. You can cap it off. You may have to fool a sensor so that you don't get a Check Engine light.

I really don't know much about emission stuff, other than what its function is.

 

It should fit into a bung welded on the headers. If you don't have that then you bought the wrong headers.

 

hummm they said that these are 4 a 99 v10. no bung welded to these ones. drill and weld a bung on? or get new headers. or cap that egr and see what happens. help the disapointed please.

 

If the headers are stainless then don't even try to weld onto them. I'm haveing the same issue right now. I'm trying to see if they make an extension kit for the EGR to a lower point on the exhaust. I'll let you now if I find anything.

 

No problem with welding on stainless with a # 9 bottle of tri mix and your tig or mig.
A good welding and fab shop should be able to help you with the mods on the headers if you know what you want done exzactly.

 

took it to the welder today, he said he could weld something in the for me. just gotta get the right size fitting with the same threads. thanks for the ideas, nice hearing from blue oval fans.

 

10 pipes,
Where you buy your Mr Gasket 7575 header gaskets???
I called summit and the earliest they can get them for me is May 21st.

 

they told me it would be a month and they just showed up 2 weeks later. be patient they are worth the wait. put a quality part or do it again. too much labor to do again. did you try jegs?
