My build has been pretty non-active recently due to a money shortage. I was getting twitchy so thought I would test fit the headers.
Good new is the steering rack clears the header. I don't think the boot will survive long there though so I am going to have to find an alternative heat proof covering.

The bad news is that the header has only about 1mm gap next to the frame rail. Not sure what to do about this. Options as I see it are:
1 - Bash the frame rail in
2 - Bash the header in
3 - Create an angled spacer that goes between the engine and the header so that it kicks the header inward a bit


I also want to sort the parts I need for my intake. I have done a test fit of the Hinson rad but I am not sure which hole to mount it in. No matter which one I use there is very little space between the water pump and fan. Not only that but there is also very little space for intake piping.
I may have to look at getting a lower profile fan. Ideally I would like enough lean on the rad so that I can get an OTR working. Failing that I will be going for a 102mm piping setup.
