Vance & Hines Ovals, not even
« on: September 15, 2005, 09:56:03 PM »

I just noticed the Vance & Hines ovals the left side is sticking out about a inch further than the right. Does anyone else have this problem? I tried to push it forward after loosening the bolt and it seemed to move but not that much. ?

CVO, were they like this since the install or did this just happen...

If it's from the install, here's a tip from when I did mine - Have somone hold the left head pipe when tyring to get the left muffler seated. If it's fully seated, slide the right muffler back to line up with the left.

I took a look at mine and tried to get the same angle, it looks like the left muffler needs to slide forward. Try a little penetrating oil before you attempt it and take the left bracket off so you can twist and push at the same time.

Slide the right pipe back to meet the left. The right side will slide up to far, compared to the left.....

I did and my dyno is posted...somewhere, I will try to dig it up.  I did not show triple digits.  I have the PC, SE intake and the ovals with stock headers.

Now the left one is short!!

Ive got the trud duals header pipes and the ovals,,, I'm starting my quest for a tuner in TX. I;ve found Cliff Piper in the Dallas area - he uses PC. Was trying to find A SERT tuner within several hundred miles. Would even go out of state if it was worth the trip.
