Yea I remember the chat room back when I first joined. I had forgot about that what ever happened to it?
thank you jaba !
used to go to the chat room a lot when I got home from work. It was fun. RRR would show up quite often as well. Funny, I don't remember you fishmens67 ????
Just a report on the drivers side header. I went out today and I hooked up the center link, installed the starter, tighten motor mount, hooked up kick down linkage, small adjustment to the tranny lines and tightened the header to the motor.
I just wanted to report I didn't have to ding anywhere, any place, plenty of clearance. I do have manual steering and brakes, 904 tranny.

Your motor will be constipated on the passanger side by the stock manifold competing against the ds header.
well, I was going to pull the 4 plug wires on the passenger side as well.
Hey big news the postman rang once.

Oh damn so you building a turbo engine?
.
Why are you telling all my secrets?
That was highly classified information on a need-to-know basis. Now I've got to change my plans My secret is out.
twin turbos.... two leaf blowers mounted between the grill and radiator supports. Then a bottle of 104+ octane booster...… I'm toast!

Oh dang sorry lol I want to try one of those Ebay turbo kits myself. I have read and watched several videos about them. They can make decent power for the money. Obviously with limitations
Could put a 80mm turbo on that magnum that's going into that Lil Red. LOL... I've played with the turbo cars from Ma Mopar.... They are the only car I could drop a 1/2 second by spending 3 dollars at a pet store.... LOL
Must be a fast gerbil.
LOL...….. This is back in the nineties, it was fun beating the 5.0 fox bodies with junk 4 door K-cars.....
Ok, I report the good with the bad, the truth as it is. The passenger side was worse to install than the drivers side Yes, that's right!
I thought I was going to have to pull the torsion bar. I figured out the puzzle. I raised the motor equally about 3 inches. that got the header past the torsion bar. then I let the engine down, and raised only the passenger side to get the header on the studs. I like using the studs on the ends, that way I don't have to drain the coolant to change a gasket. Here are some pictures on how close the header is to the body.

^^^^^ Score one for Doug's on the drivers side install, not so impressed with the passenger side, especially when there is plenty of room to alter it a smidge.
Beautiful ground clearance, I'll post a picture later of that....
