edelbrock tes headers and fan switch.

i had to use a 1/2 to 3/8 in pipe fitting to use my fan switch and what concernes me is the fact that the switch now protrudes about 3 inches out of the cyl head. I think pep boys makes a crap oem replacement that is 1/2 inches but i like my hypertech 180 and i want to keep it. Would this switch sticking out this far be a problem with the tes headers for a tbi camaro? Obviously if one of the primaries passes through the same space that the switch is in im in trouble.

lemme rephrase that... To those wiht TES headers, do any of the primaries pass in front of the switch or do they pass over/under it. If they pass over it then all ill need is some heat shielding.

I just finished installing my TES headers tonight. I didn't see any problem with the fan switch. I will check again tomorrow and let you know....
