Header fitment

Has any one had problems with longtube headers hitting the k-member?? If so how did you overcome this?

My hedman long tubes clear everything but the k-member. I was thinking of using spacers under the motor mounts for clearance. I lnow this is not the best way to do this but i'm getting desperate to finnish the install!

Still waiting

He hasn't got to it yet sigh!. But i'm hoping it'll be done early this week. I have to wait because he's doing it cheap, so he has to work it in his schedule.
