It was at the NEC a couple of years ago and looked absolutely gorgeous! I couldnt believe you were going to mess with her Terry but now I see what you are doing...she will be awesome when done. Great quality work as always...

well ,its in the hole ,test fitting the headers ,,they are painfull ..the block needed to be delt with as its a late one ,so it has bosses for truck applications,its all really bleedin tight,but it will go ok ,I hope,,,power steering really does not help,it makes it silly tight,but fair play to doug the header man,they look like they should fit without wacking with the lump hammer,took ages to get the slip joints apart ,they are such a snug fit,if it rattles on the rubber mounts ,then I may go for the poly ones or solid mount it,as im sure the rubber mount are going to be pony,as you can see ive still got to get the rear tube in .its so tight,the brake block has had to go ,so that needs a re think ,they say in the instructions to move it upwards ,doh,i think not ,,,gonna have to locate it elsewhere away from the heat,all in all ,,not to bad,,but not a fit for the average man on the street,these headers are a lot of money to buy and a lot of aggro ,,,,but then again someone went out there way to make em for the early a body I soppose,,,,getting there now

Does look tight, what size are those primary tubes? look to be pretty big.
