Oh, and I hate to go all pronunciation nazi, but it is "header" not "headers", as headers are multiple exhaust manifolds(found on v type engines) whereas We only have the one, making it a header. Sorry, pet peeve of Mine. Carry on.
I am in Harris, which I think is where the majority of the other Houston members are registered. But I am not entirely sure about how it all works, so I am going to do some more research before I start doing anything.

And about the header/headers thing, no problem. Now I know. I actually did a quick search to check what was right but just wasn't finding anything so I went with the S.

IN TEXAS ... you need a working CAT.

But, if you keep your engine light off, you will be okay.

*sigh* another pull and reinstall of the transmission.
I'm still leaking oil at an alarming rate from the little hole between the transmission and engine.
Guess I have to pull things again and check my gaskets on the rear main and the rear main carrier.
I might have to do a full gasket replacment on the bottom end.

Ouch, sorry to hear Garry. David, one of the other SVTF guys here in Houston, has the same problem.
