yes cost me $300
i say this blind I cant see car,
cars have this funny habit of sucking up non OEM parts. after say 25years age and suzuki not selling 1/2 the parts now and far worse.
lots of non stock parts and add on's or missing parts. (damaged)
but it still goes, if say the 02 is on the header end, as all are.
then if the gasket leaks bingo
if the header to cat pipe, cracks , bingo.
cracks happen only when they want to.
my newest jeep inline 6 (back when 2002?)
has SST headers stock (all did) to pass EPA 8 year rule? is why its sst)
we took it off every 50k miles and had to weld it with sST rod.
it cracks only on the back side, every time.. ran it to 250k and sold it.
the back side leak is was found 1st time, with rubber hose on a stick (loved to leak only red hot EXHAUST, normal hot)
and hose to ear idling, putts sounds all over there, where no man can go ,for sure ears. (we found a cure but is off topic , jeeps)
cracks happen. just expect them.
