I just bought lte duals for my raptor and noticed a small dent in the header about 3/4 of an inch long and half an inch wide with an indentation of about an 1/8 of an inch or little more. Will this affect the exhaust's performance??

I have a picture I just don't know how to post it.

 

A very minimal amount... but yes it will. Not a noticable amount, but if you drag for money you might wanna get a new one.

 

yeah i don't drag race i just got it because i went from a 660 to a 686 and wanted better performance out of the exhaust. i emailed randy looney to get his opinion and what i should do also but thank you for the reply.

 

 

ok here is a pic


dented header

 

if your that worried about it, I'd drill a small hole in it, use a slide hammer on it to pull it out while heating up the surounding area to get it out, then I'd just weld the hole shut grind it smooth/ polish. Just a suggestion.

 

Oh, that aint nothing, dont worry about it.

 

Saw the pix it does not look like it would interfer.
But if you bought it brand new and it was not used go back to the dealer you bought it from and have a talk with them. They may exchange it or get some money back on it.

 

alright thanks for all of the replies...ill probably just put it on
