Hey Tad, now that you cut up my old headers and I already have spent your money. You can go ahead and send those back:D

All of that old oil on the passenger side header is what happens when you supercharge a stock motor and get massive blow bye. Like seven cracked pistons blow byecwm4

On the passenger side I was able to get to all of the plugs with straight plug heads. But when I went with the TFS angle plug heads I had to remove the header from the head to get to the number 6 & 8 plugs. Driver side was a lot easier. What heads are you using? Straight or angle?

Also with my stroker motor I have splayed caps, so I had to slightly bend my dip stick tube to get past the bearing cap. So if I put the tube in first, then I had a heck of a time getting the header over the tube. If I put the header on first then I had a heck of a time trying to get my dip stick tube in because of the splayed cap.

I just thought I would give you some heads up (no pun intended) if you run into any issues on the passenger side.

The problem was the plug could only back out so far before hitting the primary tube. That and getting the MSD boots on and offcwm3

But they still where a nice set of headers and well worth it, for just 2 plugs.

I'm just going a different route. From one source of boost to another;)
