BTW, I need to do an exhaust setup. Anybody have pics of running duals with the Hawks long tube headers? This sphon chassis mount torque arm seems a bit tricky to work around

Nice! I want to see some engine bay pics, the wiring looks super clean and like I want to do mine!

You could fabricate like this guy did.

As soon as someone makes a double-hump crossmember with TQ arm mount, they'll fulfill a much-needed hole in the aftermarket.

Yeah if it had that double hump in it, that would be soooo much easier to work with. At least the passenger side isn't too bad, its more of the driver side which really has no room for the exhaust to route.
