I've seen this little tube somewhere before, but I can't find the info. It a small, maybe 3/8", maybe 3" long, tube that goes from the first pipe up to the head on the passenger side.
The boss in the motor that it goes into appears to dead end. The old manifolds had a dead end hole and a hole in the gasket.
The hole in the new gasket isn't in the right place, it's too low. I was afraid that I used the wrong side gasket on the driver's side, but the bolt holes don't line up if I switch sides.
I am putting the metal side of the gasket towards the head as that's the way the old ones were.
So, the questions are, Do I just install the gasket and header and ignore it, put a hole in the correct place in the gasket, or what?
In other news, the Borla exhaust arrived today.
