Idler arm hits on header

myasylum said

Headers are awful! I have headman headers and I had to take them off three times in order to get them to fit correctly. I just noticed everything is like a puzzle. If you can figure out the correct order of things it's not so bad. Like bolting tie rods on the Idler arm before you bolt on the headers.

Yeah, like you said, once I figured out the process, I was able to get them bolted in OK. Helped that the motor was just sitting loose in the bay, so I was able to lift and move it around as needed.

Everything else clears pretty good. I'll have to put a little dimple by the power steering box - pretty close fit there. Just that dang idler arm has such a huge clearance issue.
