Did your Hedman full lengths go in from the bottom or top? and did you need a mini starter? and how was oil filter clearance?

Thanks,
Paul

The passenger side went in from the top, but it won't clear the factory A/C box on the firewall. I took my A/C out, so it fit ok after that. Driver side has to go in from the bottom, and you'll need to lift the motor about 4" or so as well. I used a standard size starter, and never had any issues with it. I did have to route the fuel lines differently, and I wrapped them in header wrap to be on the safe side. The carb fuel lines enter the engine bay on the passenger side, but I think the TPI ones come in on the drivers side? Anyways, you may need to double check them. Oil filter clearance was ok. I use the longer truck filters, and there was enough room I could still take them out by hand. To be safe, I had the collectors on each header wrapped with header wrap. My car has been undercoated, and I was worried that the high temps might melt it off.

Hope this helps!
