I just did the EGR delete and just got rid of those stupid tubes

[@ToyotaPickup]

It turns out LCE doesn’t make a long tube header for the 20R, so I had to go with their shorty header, which means it doesn’t just mount a 2 bolt flange at the bottom. Currently working on finding a shop to do full exhaust

Greetings, thank you for doing this. I have a rather old Downey headers on my 1986 4runner and it is starting to crack after almost 20 years. Was wanting to do the LCE headers but the only thing stopping me is the confusion about the o2 sensor in that it says I need a heated o2 sensor. My truck only has this one wire to the o2 sensor and I contacted LCE about it but they said to read their FAQ section and it just says I need to get a heated O2 sensor like I saw on your video. My problem is that I know where one wire goes onto the new o2 sensor but what about the other 2 of the 3 wires I noticed on yours. Where do the other wires go? Do I get connect it to a constant power source or ? Thank you again.

All I have to do is match the new one it’s a plug and play black with black white with white and blue with it h blue it was a plug and play for me didn’t have to do anything

[@sincereace6053]

a trick: you can watch movies at Flixzone. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.

[@jesiahtyson6646]

@Sincere Ace yea, been using Flixzone for years myself :)

Hey The Works, I have the exact same truck as you! I've been thinking about installing these headers too. You've had them for almost a year now, what are your thoughts? Are you still happy with them? Any problems? I'm in California so preserving the stock catalytic converter and muffler is a priority - gotta pass smog.

[@TheWorks95]

Same here I’m in Long Beach honestly it’s a great upgrade but ur not gunna feel the difference unless u up grade the full exhaust and the intake. But I pass smog

[@DanielReetz]

@@TheWorks95 Really appreciate your thoughts on this. I'm going to put one of those GFC campers on my truck (about 300lbs and a big hit in aerodynamics). I guess the way I'll approach it is to not make any exhaust or intake upgrades right now, rather I'll wait to see how it drives and then when it's time for major engine maintenance or other deep work I'll reconsider installing these manifolds. Thanks again.

[@TheWorks95]

That’s really great to hear man I want a camper myself I like doing outdoors stuff on my own but yeah If ur going to get bigger tires and wheels ur gunna need power and eventually upgrade the fly wheel

[@DanielReetz]

@@TheWorks95 Noted. I'm trying to stay pretty close to stock but I do have 235/75 r15 wheels, a small body lift, etc. It's a 2WD truck. Main thing I'm focused on now is to beef up the rear suspension a bit so there's no sag. At some point I'm probably just going to need to accept the limitations of this little machine - I've had it for 13 years and it's always been enough.

[@lydeange1]

Great video! One question though. How did you clean up your air injection tube? If you bought a new one where did you get it?

[@TheWorks95]

It’s not cleaned it was just painted with some bbq paint

[@kshaffer1964]

@@TheWorks95 How did the BBQ paint hold up?

[@TheWorks95]

It’s still good till this day. I used rust-oleum “high heat”

[@superchef78]

What if I did this without O2 sensors? 1989 pickup

[@luisedgar8840]

A year late but LCEngineering sells o2 sensor block off plates.

[@timeforbigchange9417]

Out with old and hopefully in with the new, but not a new set of problems. I mean watch out for inferior aftermarket products. Toyota is well designed OEM to begin with. I made a huge mistake with garbage hedman headers for my 22re. I wish I would have got LCE header kit to begin with. Trust is a big issue with my originally owned 88'. sr5 4x4. I'm going back to the stock exhaust manifold setup.

[@reaper352c5]

that pipe on the exhaust manifold is for air injection

[@TheWorks95]

There are two options for 1994 it’s the pro race headers or this one

[@TheWorks95]

And I have no issues the power is all there

[@CristianGonzalez-vf9oi]

Did the lce headers fit with the stock catalytic converter on the pickup ??

[@TheWorks95]

Yes everything was stock except for the parts i installed

[@CristianGonzalez-vf9oi]

What exactly does this do?

[@TheWorks95]

They increase flow allowing to increase in performance to your engine

[@toyscars978]

how much does that heater cost

[@fiys567]

Would have been a good video if you didn’t cut so much stuff out

[@TheWorks95]

Yeah didn’t think I had to but unfortunately I did

[@fiys567]

@@TheWorks95 yea I mean idk. Also how did you get the air injection on so easily.

[@TheWorks95]

Are you talking about the air injection plates? You have to use a bar to pry it

[@fiys567]

@@TheWorks95 I got it off the problem is I can’t get it on at all now and there’s no way I can really get leverage for it.

[@TheWorks95]

Did u possibly bend the pipe a little too much? Because it was an easy fit as soon as we slipped in the pipe first then to the block make sure u wiggle it to its correct angle
