Shipping Damage New Headers

yep the engine is sitting as low as I can get it. Close to spec. Its as if the edelbrock alum heads are a little wider at the exhaust sealing face or a diff angle. The engine doesnt care about the dings in its pipes. 1.03 T bars also but I dont think thats the issue. Theres still only about 1/16 clearance. I cant stand it when the exhaust is bumpin on sumpthin.

Well there is your answer "as low as I can get it" when you shim the mounts it raises the engine lifting it away from the T bars.
