Had to send my header tubes to Tubular automotive (twice) to have them re worked, the tubes that came with the CSX car were not even close. I think it had to do with the motor placement. I moved the motor forward about .75" using the Kirkham motor mounts. The way the motor was sitting the heads and valve covers were too close to the foot boxes and would have cooked the foot boxes. I have time to kill while waiting on moorison for my cross ram manifold to be delivered. The Corona virus has New Zealand on Lockdown, so I am screwed. I should get them back any day now, once they fit I can send them out to be ceramic coated. I will have them done inside and out a satin black color. The header tubes on the CSX cars and crap, so I wanted to make them right...
