Heat shield removal to install ZZP 1.8L Header

[chevsonic]

Hello everyone,
I just bought the ZZP 1.8L header. I have a few questions about the installation process.
1. How do I remove the heat shield? It seems like it's the O2 sensor that is in the way. What tool and what size of that tool do you use to remove the O2 sensor?
2. Also I've been reading that it doesn't come with bolts or nuts so you can attach it to the mid-pipe, and that the factory bolts are too small. What size bolts and nuts did anyone who installed it use?

Thanks!

never done it but I believe that the autozone etc has a special tool to get the o2 sensor off.Its just a piece you put on the ratchet.

I would think they would provide the propper bolts for that header, and a set of instructions. Have you asked ZZP?

Make sure to heat wrap it!
