Interesting! I didn't know that the blades on the impeller were straight. I would've guessed curved blades - like some centrifugal water pumps.

is this pipe on all the tes headers bc the one in the pic on summit does not have it. this is why i ask bc i'm thinking about getting these headers but i have a mach procharger and that pipe would be in the way of the head unit

These were added. The factory tubes were chopped off the factory manifolds then welded on to the TES headers. They weren't welded on good so I removed them vs rewelding them so they didn't leak. I removed the air tubes on both sides and removed the EGR tube. This made it much easier to install around all those brake lines.

abryant · 04-27-2009, 01:22 AM

oh so those were added for the air injection, i already ripped that out of my truck

01cherryreds10 · 04-27-2009, 02:24 AM

So the headers come with neither the AIR or EGR tubes?

Thats right.

1991S1030K · 06-25-2009, 03:04 AM

I changed the tips out. They are C4 Vette tips. I bought them off ebay. They are a GM performance part. Polished stainless. 2" dual inlets. My old tips kept cracking where it was all tigged together. Bad flux I guess. This is a more aggressive setup, but I like it.

Pics :

I like the old setup better. But it doesnt look bad. I cant say ive seen it before on a S10.

Me too I loved those tips. I'm going to try to fix them better and install them on another project. I always try to find something different. Not just your typical round tips.

DMP · 06-25-2009, 11:14 PM

Get those old tips coated with black oynx. I wanna see what it would look like. I bet it would look good.

I'm going to retig them for the 3rd time. One is cracked right now. I'm going to keep them and install them on my '71 Torino.
