sor headers installed

I finally finished my wife's 60, I put on a set of sor headers, felpro gasket, had the intake belt sanded, rebuilt my power steering pump, new hoses, valve cover gasket replaced new pulgs, cap, rotor, wires. smog pump eliminator 2 1/2 inch exaust all the way back, I thought for 175.00 to weld the y-pipe and new muffler and new pipe was a good deal. new battery, and cranking on it for about thirty min. and she started. seems to run good now, I think I can feel more power, but it has been awhile since I drove it, so I am not sure. I have to know re tourque the intake and exaust back down and I should be good.

Did you use the tuned ceramic headers?

X2 on the pics! What kind of gasket did you use?

TIA-

Edit** Just noticed you used Felpro. This brings up another question though... all the Felpro gaskets i've found are not designed for a header (the way the holes are cut), but rather a manifold. Is this what you used? How has it worked so far?

Thanks agian!

I just got her going yesterday, so I am not sure how the felpro gasket will work. Every one on here said to not use the sor kevlar one so I didn't. The muffler guy told me he would have used the kevlar, he said to soak it in the sink for twenty minutes then install. I the sor hi-tech headers with the titanium coating, i am not sure if that meens any thing but they work. I will take pics later today.
