So you had to bend the headers to get a proper seal. Yeah. That's called interference. There were exhust leaks because the headers wouldn't seat on the engine correctly, because there were clearance issues.

Yes?

Quotebecause there were clearance issue

No, there was nothing physically touching or interfereing with the exhuast.  Think it may have been bent just a tad out of whack keeping it from fitting flush on the right side.

Quote from: blue05twinit was a yoshi slip on.  While I was at the muffler shop getting the parts welded the pipe bended asked me about the flange I had gotten from sinrath, told him what I paid. Said I got it for a steal.  Would have cost me about $100 for him to make one for me.

That would be Srinath and yes making 1 will cost a ton ... make 40 and it will dramatically drop ... Like I said ... make one and they wont even want to talk to ya ... heck making 40 I still got no respect ...  :lol:  but that may be cos of me ... not the numbers.
Cool.
Srinath.
