Looks good Robbie. I haven't heard anyone complain about their 1900 yet.

Awesome! Do you have any pics of where you had to grind the alternator bracket? I have an oversized alt and am wondering if there will be clearance issues...

i'll get them for you. It's actually on the magnacharger tvs installation manual as well. From what I see, the alternator is not a clearance issue, but the bracket was. Once the blower it set down and the alternator is back on, it really doesn't pose and huge clearance issues, well, maybe a tad, but I'll get those pics either way, lol.

lol, anything better than stock?

I'm not looking for any insane #s, I actually have no desire to run it. Going to take it one time for an official run and that'll be about all she see's.

If I had to guess, somewhere in the 13s?

does anyone know the average time it should take for a header install ONLY, no ypipe, no cats, etc. JUST the headers? I'm being told some off the wall times by a local shop.

That would be great. Heres a comparision of my alt to a stock one,



Complete time to take headers off and put the new ones on, but not the y pipe or anything, no more than 3 hours id say.
When I had my exhaust done, I supplied everything but the pipes and paid 150 for labor including header install and everything welded up and pipes run. Seemed like a good bargain to me.
