New Headers on Caprice PPV!

Season 5 Episode 9
Hayden's Chevy Caprice
Hey guys! In this week's episode, we finally put the new JBA headers on the Caprice
We took off the old manifolds that were restricting the air quite a bit. The new headers were made for a Chevrolet SS but bolted right where the manifolds were.
Check them out!

Using this tutorial for my SS sedan. After watching about 15 installs, this was the best one Thanks man

[@B1gF4tR4t]

Sounds so good!! Did you change the camshaft?

[@BlackIceProductions]

yes we have a video going over the specs, check it out!

[@TreySoSuave]

What part of indiana do you stay in👀. I seen you before and I want a ppv now!

[@BlackIceProductions]

Indianapolis, mostly west side. we love to hit a lot of car shows in the area!

[@68turbopowered]

What was the Performance gained?

[@BlackIceProductions]

HP went up about 15. biggest difference was the rise in low end power though!

[@kinngguerobuilds8121]

With these headers didny have to do a oil cooler delete ?

[@BlackIceProductions]

not with these headers. they fit easily into where the manifolds were!

I can’t find a ppv so this is depressing

[@BlackIceProductions]

will definitely be a car to have in the future.. keep looking!

@@bigdingus7915 i would advise getting into some facebook groups for caprices and holdens. if you ask the right people you can find them easily. good luck on your search!

[@bigdingus7915]

@@josephyearby5117 it depends on what shape it’s in and if it has the floor shifter

[@XxXNyMpHoXxX]

So it's safe to say that the American Racing Shorty headers I have will bolt on to a 2014 Caprice??

[@BlackIceProductions]

Yes they will bolt on

[@XxXNyMpHoXxX]

@@BlackIceProductions Thanks man for the confirmation

[@jeffboyer8214]

2014 ss parts fit the 2011 to 2013 ppvs? What did you guys do for the cats? We see you cut them off . Did you add v band clamps to each end and replace them? You make it look easy with out a lift. Keep the videos coming thank you.

[@BlackIceProductions]

correct, this 2012 can use the parts from the SS, same idea so many interchangeable parts. as for the cats we got rid of them all together and just welded pipe in place of them. now it is headers straight back, after all of the exhaust modifications! i’m glad it looked easy because it was a little bit of a struggle, but the help of our guys and those drive on ramps were great!

[@jeffboyer8214]

@@BlackIceProductions ok so I would have to keep the cats due to the uncool laws here in ny. So I guess I would have to get the car up higher and look at how much pipe to leave and add a v band clamp. Have you added a trans dip stick ? I have one to install but I ran into an issue with my impact gun and I didn't get to finish. When I do the headers I'll do the stick as well.

[@BlackIceProductions]

@@jeffboyer8214 Yeah those emissions are no fun but not many laws here in IN. we haven't done a trans stick, but you will have to update us on yours! hope it all goes well! email in the description for questions and showing off your build.

[@haydenrapp6547]

Doug Thorley headers will bolt right up to factory system. Also you should be fine with the dip sick I have some buddy’s that have both.

[@kendrickmartin115]

@@jeffboyer8214 I came across a similar issue here in TX with the cats. What have you done to be emission compliant with the cats.

[@konvict8387]

Looking for shorty headers. Will the 6.2 shorty fit directly on the PPV? I have a 2014

[@faviang9101]

I want one of those bad boys

[@BlackIceProductions]

look on facebook for caprice groups in your area. some could be totaled out by nearby police stations for cheap prices! make sure to follow our upgrades if you get one!

[@julz5915]

I was worried I wouldn't be able to get them up with out a lift glad to see its doable in the driveway

[@DirtySouthRider]

How have the car been running without the higher stall? I just made appointment with your guy Mike Norris to get my car to his shop next month.

[@BlackIceProductions]

After going to Mike Norris we had many problems. After experiencing some troubles we took it to Blue Line Performance and they did a great job of taking care or everything

do not go to Mike Norris.

[@DirtySouthRider]

@@BlackIceProductions WOW! Well I hope that I have a better experience because I can’t get in contact with blue line.

[@06r6n]

Does anyone have the part number for these?

[@blsx9220]

Part Number for Headers?

[@requismcblack6124]

Sir, How did your JBA Headers mount to the exhaust, Im not sure if I am missing something or not but I simply dont know how to connect the two

[@BlackIceProductions]

We had an exhaust shop weld the V band onto the exhaust

[@Grand-wd5be]

I have a question if I have a vvti 3.6 will it fix a ss headers?

[@mainlymoto9828]

NO LOL

[@JoeWilly69]

What yr is your Caprice? Thnx

[@BlackIceProductions]

2012!

[@JoeWilly69]

@@BlackIceProductions I'm having real hard time getting what I need, my tuner wants me to get kooks but they're stupid expensive, and if you buy them on kooks website u have to agree not to install on a registered vehicle or be subjective to a 4900 dollar a day fine, clean air act!

[@BlackIceProductions]

@@JoeWilly69 yes some state laws are like that, it is completely up to you. it is rare to get cited for that kind of thing but it could happen so if you think the power gain is worth it and you are looking for more upgrades then this would be a beneficial upgrade..

[@JoeWilly69]

@@BlackIceProductions the clean air act is fed law, in order to complete your order u have to enter your VIN and all your vehicle info! Your immediately in violation as far as the epa goes, 4800 dollars and change per day. This is rediculous, even catted pipes are illegal. I spoke with a rep at kooks, they don't sell in CA at all! I tried to get them from summit, NG, I saw the waiver on another website but can't recall. It's not the issue of getting pulled over that's the least of your worries that'll probably never happen I live in Florida the point is the EPA has all your information I'm guessing it goes directly to them and then they can contact you by letter advising you that you're in violation of the clean Air act. I'm not overstating this believe me when I tell you just go on Cook's website and you can see.
