Fuck these headers. I've been dicking with these things for the past 4 hours, and I'm having the hardest time. First of all, I don't recommend installing these with the motor in the car. My arms look like I tried to slit my wrists, and to be honest, that's not all that far from how I feel.
I've yet to tighten everything up, but I can't see how the headers aren't going to hit the motor mount arm or the subframe. I'll probably try to space up the passenger side motor mount, but I don't know what to do about the motor mount thing, except for maybe to dimple the pipe with a BFH.
Actually, I hope a fresh look tomorrow will fix it.
