got my engine in today,first time so it took about 8 hours and all of a friends help
but we got the header all buttoned up and he noticed that on one side that the cooling lines are touching the header....
I was pissed the guy I got it from said it was on his and wasnt any problem I needed to be worried about but
thats the way it goes sometimes...
its a muzzy side winder pipe which Im sure alotta guys dont like but Im a strait liner so Ive always
liked the look.......anybody got any Ideas or hed this problem ???
thanks for any suggestions,other than spending more money on another pipe which I hate too do !!!
I know I may have too but if theres another option Im open to it

Thanks runr
I figured out tonight after work that the
Header was being pulled back by the center stand
Mounting bracket on the header...got it right
Probably gonna put some kinda heat shield
Between the hose anyway though
